Other people who already visited here calles this place Lamesahan because of lots of big and flat rocks and corals.

Before reaching the coast, it needs to pass here in this very old and abandoned staircase made of concrete. It is made at the slope parts of the cliff so everyone can easily climb down from the cliff straight to the coastal areas. This very old concrete staircase almost covered with soil and wild grass and the reason why there is a staircase because there was a resort built here. Many years has past when the structure was totally abandoned and only this stairs left.

This walls is made of solid concrete supported with lots of big rocks so the structure cannot be easily destroyed by rough waves. This is very old sea walls and does bot destroyed by strong water currents. It keeps the place to keep away from collapsing due to big waves and it makes the dry place still intact. Those piled rocks was got at the coast and it piled perfectly before filling up the concrete. Few meters of concrete walls built here and it is still standing intact until today.

In order for everyone to get at the water, this main way here is the only way out going to the sea. Every hight tide season, big waves will reached in here and some parts of this structure are submerged at the sea water. It builts very perfectly so it wont be destroyed by sea water and the most interesting about this is it built hundred years already just as what the elders told us during the visit here.

Most of the the trees can be seen and found here are Talisay trees and aside of that, it is perfect for camping trips and picnics because of the plain portions of the areas facing to the sea. This big tree really intend to plant this near at the concrete wall so it can help to have strong support of the structure everytime when it will hit by big waves.

Aside of small wooden boats, few houses are also built near at the sea. Houses are built at the top of the concrete structure, hundred of boats placed at the top and few waitingshed owned by few residents.
