Panagsama Beach is small village 3km from Moalboal town and is typically reached with a tricycle, a motorbike with a sidecar attached for passengers. Panagsama Beach is a very old fishing village that has evolved into a tourist spot because of the nearby dive-spot Pescador Island. Panagsama Beach offers a very laid back life style and it is the perfect place for relaxing and scuba diving.
  The night life often goes on into the small hours of the morning and offers something for everyone, young or old. There are discos, bars, outdoor bars and very often impromptu parties are held outside the diveshop at night time. Favourite bars (you'll find them very easily) are Lantaw, Mayas Native Garden, Last Filling Station and Planet Action Bar. Beach Bar, Seven Sins Bar, Lloyd's Music Launge and Chief Mau's is always open until the early hours of the morning for those for whom the day starts at sundown!
