Baybay Beach, known for its black sand and consistent waves, attracted 73 surfers and skimboarders from across the region, including participants from Leyte, Guiuan, and Borongan City, as well as visitors from farther locales such as Zambales. The beach buzzed with energy as water enthusiasts demonstrated their skills. Families relaxed under makeshift tents, children played along the shore, and local vendors served food and refreshments to delighted spectators.
Llorente Mayor Daniel Boco reflected on the growth of the town’s surfing scene. “What started with fewer than 10 surfers has grown into something much bigger. Today, we’re joined by athletes from across the region,” he said.“We have the natural beauty, and with the right projects, we can build on this momentum,” Boco said.
