Alubihod Beach - Things You Need To Know

After the Trappist Monastery, we headed to Alubihod Beach in Nueva Valencia. Travelling to this gorgeous beach via a habal is easy because the roads are all concrete. I was welcomed by the courteous staff of Raymen Beach Resort. Settled the entrance fee and walked to the beach area. The shoreline is pretty in its own way. The picturesque is Instagram-worthy because of the rock formation highlighted by the creamy white sand with corals and pebbles. The ambience by the beach is relaxing because the sea breeze is cool.

Guisi Lighthouse - Things You Need To Know

Touching the walls of Guisi Lighthouse or Faro de Punta Luzaran is the most exciting part of my backpacking in Guimaras. It is the second oldest lighthouse in the Philippines, lit up for the first time in 1894. This structure was erected in the 18th century to guide the mariners passing by the waters of Iloilo and Guimaras. Its structure is made of metal from France, tisa from Portugal, and cement from England. Based on the ruins, the floor plan is similar to Burgos Lighthouse in Ilocos Norte and the Cape Engaño Lighthouse in Palaui Island. Today, the thick walls are covered with mosses and plants, and the rusty metal lighthouse remains erect. The ambiance in the area is relaxing because of the cool sea breeze.

Featuring Bohol (17 Best Tourist Spots)

1. Danao Adventure Park

Bohol is one of the top tourist destinations in the Visayas region because of the stunning "chocolate hills" and the weird-looking primate called "tarsier;" these are just two of those in the limelight. As we dig deeper, we see that the province can offer a lot of gems. Historical landmarks and old churches are always part of the itinerary. Still, during summer or even the rainy season, the fine white sand beaches and the beauty of the flora and fauna underwater became top of the list of the most seen. In addition, extreme activities can be tried, like the Top 1 on my list - THE PLUNGE of Danao Adventure Camp.

The spectacular beauty of the Batad Rice Terraces captured the eyes of the world in 1995 when it was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Less than a thousand years ago, the people of Ifugao mastered agricultural practices, including the creation of terraces. This agricultural landscape proves that the early civilizations already knew how to improve their crops by adapting to natural factors through terracing.

The Britania Islands are just a few of the hidden paradises of San Agustin, Surigao del Sur. These are like huge boulders dropped into the water, and the fine white sand exploded from the sea bed. Every islet is surrounded by crystal clear waters and fine white sand. There are several islets, but we only reached a few because of the high tide.
