Emilio Narcise, now a retired general.  Complimenting these historical tourist spots are the beautiful beach of Becques, the picturesque landscaping along the roads also of Becques and the still to be developed Baracbac Falls.  Fishing at the sea of Becques can also be interesting because you can encounter a group of dancing dolphins if you dare to travel a 30-minute ride going to the west.
