EL NIDO (TOUR A)

-
El Nido might be the most famous place in the province of Palawan not just because of its white sand beaches and wonderful lagoons, but most importantly because of its towering karst cliffs that cannot be found elsewhere  in the Philippines.
Tbh, napa "WoW" din ako when I first saw the huge limestones in El Nido, but not surprised since it wasn't my first time seeing those beautiful creations. 

Well, if it'll be your first time, then you'll be in love at first sight.🤭😍

So, let's have Tour A first... Wew! 

Note: I have toured "Tour A" twice but this specific tour has been changed recently for compliance of the carrying capacity of the destinations. 

#1Seven-Commando Beach
I love this beach!
Powdery white sand and crystal-clear water. Sunbathing here is perfect. But yeah, I am a Filipina so, sunbathing is a NO for me! 😄

#2 Big Lagoon
I have been to this lagoon twice and still fantastic. 😎 ❣️ The first time I visited this site, it was low tide. That was why I was able to walk at the side (right cliff) for few meters going to the part where you can already dive in. 
<It looked near at the "entrance" so i decided to walk barefoot. Omgeee... pagka layo paman diay and not all fine sand. Sakita sa tiil jud.😅>  

Note: Big and Small Lagoons were both in Tour A before. But this time, you have to choose between the two. Ouuch..😔 Sana dalawa ang puso.💔😁

#3 Shimizu Island 
Lunch is usually served in this island.
So, while waiting for your lunch to be served, you can chill around and enjoy the sea, but, sometimes, if it's too windy particularly in the months of November, December or January, you can just have your lunch on the boat behind the beach area of the island.😁 Yes, you can't go down from the boat just like what happened during my second time here. Hanggang tingin kana lang sa isla. Hahaha
So, i advise you to go island hopping in El Nido during summer especially Feb. - early May.

#4 Snorkeling just nearby Shimizu 
I must say, snorkeling in this area isn't recommendable. 😬 I was trying so hard to find a good spot but waley. Kaya, I don't have a photo here. Hehe <I got a big bruise on my left knee here.😆 Carelessness overload! > 

#5 Secret Lagoon
I didn't find the Secret Lagoon fantastic. Generally, it is fine, but since it was so crowded already when we got there, it made the place unexpectedly ugly.✌️
      Going inside the secret                          lagoon
       You can't take a photo             without people behind           you.😁 

However,  outside the Secret Lagoon is mesmerizing! I super love it! It is 👇

#6 Hidden Beach 
My friends and I had a great time outside the lagoon. Hhhmmm...Indeed, sometimes, the beauty is just on the outside, not in the inside.😜

There you go mga ka CP!  Check out for the next tour, Tour B. 

Until then... Stay safe and healthy! 🙏 ❤️



P. S. 
Tour A Rate: PhP1,200.00/pax  (price may change as of this publishing)

Inandeng River

The name Inandeng is from the name of two sitios in Barangay New Agutaya, San Vicente, Palawan, where Inandeng River traverses; Inarayan and Landing. It is 2.5km long, navigatable by smalls boats and kayaks, but only 1.9km is most often navigated by the locals, particularly the fishermen in the bgy.  The end of the river meets the Long Beach, the longest white-sand beach in the Philippines.  What attract me the most about the river are the mangrove area which is believed to be one of the big help in the barangay especially during the super typhoon Odette and the coconut trees that added beauty along the wider area of the river.  Sadly, a lot of the mangrove trees in the area were devastated during the super typhoon, probably the really old ones. However, it is fortunate enough that there's enough left for the people to adore while navigating the river. The LGU-San Vicente has already a plan to develop a River Cruise in the site, where every tourist can enjoy the river and...

Bato ni Ningning

                  📸 Chuck Maquiso Trivia:  In 2015, while I was on my recovery period after my surgery, I only stayed at home for months. During those days, I got nothing else to do but read books, watch movies and for the longest time, watch TV shows.  Because of the daytime series, "Ning2x," on ABS-CBN that time, I started to wonder where they filmed the pilot episodes of the show especially the site where there's a huge rock on the top of the knoll. I found the view really lovely!  Unexpectedly,  after a year and 7 months when I could travel again, I visited my friend/colleague in San Vicente whom I hadn't seen for a long time. She told me that we were going somewhere where it was one of the shooting locations of a television show. That's all! No other clues! hahaha   Can you imagine how I felt when I saw the place I dreamed of seeing but not knowing its location? hehehe It felt so surreal! I was overjoyed. ?...

Puting Bato @Lutopan, Toledo City, Cebu

Mountain climbing is something I got interested in when I first overcame my fear of heights. But our climb to Puting Bato was an unexpected one, that we were not able to wear even a proper footwear. 👣The ascent After about a 25-minute trek from the national highway, this was still pretty okay for the knees. 👌    But then..... Surprisingly!  Still thinking of backing out or not? 😂        Go go go! 💪      We (only 3 of us) never thought the climb would be like that.       No retreat, no surrender!             💪 😅      Finally reached the peak!        Down below 👇  When you're on top, you can see the mining industry in the area, Carmen Copper Corporation (CCC).        Relaxing on top while          ...
