Anda is better in the sense that it is still not crowded compared to Panglao. Well, Anda sand is great compared to Panglao too. However, local leaders MUST MUST see to it that the necessary development framework will be in place. We do not want to have a repeat of what happened in Panglao.
Anda is an eco-cultural tourism site in the eastern peninsula. You can find there apart from the beautiful white beaches, the hanging coffins, relics of old Bohol, cave writings that dates back to antiquity. Anda tourism development should not be designed for MASS tourism. It has to be a controlled development initiative in order to maintain the heritage the people there have cherished for so long.
For future resort developers including Bohol Beach Club's Anos Fonacier, a piece of advice.... develop your resort in a way that will reflect the lives, the heritage, the culture and traditions of Andahanons and the Boholanos in general. Dont bring in Spanish roof tiles and construct Med Villas. Structures should relfect and express vernacular Boholano architectures and art. Accessorize your hotels/resort with local crafts and arts.
Much has to be desired.......
