If I remember correctly the DNR has jurisdiction over any and all beaches for 30 meters above high tide line, above that ownership runs.
Good luck setting up a business on public land.

That is correct.
FYI, Alona Beach is under the magnifying glass. It is considered the next in line after Boracay for adherence to the DENR rules mandating free and clear space from high tide to 30 meters above. Alona Beach owners are trying to adhere so the Federal Government doesn't step in and do forced closures like they did in Boracay.
After that or at the same time comes Palawan.
