The Sands at SM by the Bay arrives in Manila


It’s definitely sand and it came all the way from Vietnam; that’s why it’s a  good place to play beach volleyball and other outdoor activities that involves a venue that needs sand. Players no longer need to go to Boracay or travel a far venue just to get that place they want for the tournament.

SM by the Bay, envisioned to be Manila’s premier destination for leisure and lifestyle activities, launched Sands at SM by the Bay, the only beach-themed, multi-purpose, outdoor sand court in the city.
