If one asks a local where is the best place to hang around and dine in Tawi Tawi, their answer would be Sandbar Lepa.  Sandbar Lepa is not a sand bar or a bar.  It is a beachfront restaurant with some accommodation facility.

After climbing Bud Bongao, I wanted to end the day with a beautiful sunset so Alvin brought me to  Sandbar Lepa.

HOW TO GET TO SANDBAR LEPA

Sandbar Lepa Restaurant is located few meters away from the Bud Bongao “base camp”.

MY PERSONAL BIAS

The sand is not fine but its okay just the same. Unfortunately again, the restaurant was closed when I was there so I did not have the chance to try their food.
