Calaguas Island A Hidden Paradise in Bicol
Calaguas - is a group of islands composed of Tinaga Island (Major), Guintina Island (Major), Maculabo Island (Minor), and other minor islands.
The Mahabang Buhangin is located on Tinaga Island where tourists are amazed by the beauty of the powdery white sand and the clear waters surrounding it.
After a long year of being away from the Philippines, my friends and I decided to reunite and have a relaxing day at Calaguas. Each of us contributed to the food and the boat that we will be using. The cost of renting a boat is 7k and its capacity is 20 to 25 people. We were just 6 in our barkada but luckily my friend Francis Kevin invited some of his friends from Manila and that lessened our contribution to the transportation
Once you're near the island you'll see the bluish clear water, you'll be enticed to dive in the water! Just Be careful because the water is too deep so wait for the boat to be near the shore.
On the right side of the island, there is this rocky part. This is the spot where you can get a cellphone signal. Bring plenty of patience if you plan to text someone.
This is us having fun with the camera while our friend is covered in sand.
I suggest that you bring sun glass and your own tent. You need the sun glass to protect the eyes during noon because the sun rays reflect to the sands causing your eye to get burned by the light. There is no commercial establishment that offers any accommodation that's why you need to bring tents.
You can see to the photos how clear the water is.
We are just having fun! We take plenty of jump shots this is the one I like.
We are going home! A group picture of my newly found friends. I don't who they are but they become a friend of mine in one day and a half.
