Droughtiness at Cagbalete Island - May 2014

For you to reach the Cagbalete Island, you need to ride a boat at Mauban Port. The ride will take around forty-five (45) minutes to one (1) hour, and costs Php50.00.

As a person with fear of deep blue water, I need to endure the long ride. We were all excited when we saw the island from afar! Oh, what a beauty!

And hola! We need to walk one (1) km just to reach the resort due to low tide. It felt like forever. I was not expecting this. HAHA. 

                                          FINALLY! We've reached the resort! My goodness.

We stayed at Villa Cleofas. It's a simple kubo type cottage which costs Php3,000.00 good for 12 persons. We rested and took pictures (Cagbalete Island is picturesque during low tide) until 5:00 PM to wait for the sea to reach the shore. At night, people were building bonfires. Of course, we also did ours.

I loved the sea when the sun shined the next morning. Everything was crystal clear! This was the best time to swim! But we need to checked out around 11:00 AM and ride the boat back to Mauban Port before low tide.

I can say that Cagbalete Island is okay for barkada getaway!

Summer Fling at Anvaya Cove Nature Club, Morong, Bataan - May 2014

Every year, each center of our Company schedules a team building, also known as "Summer Fling." This year, we chose Anvaya Cove Nature Club which is located at Morong, Bataan. It was my first year in DAP, thus, this was also my first time joining this "Summer Fling."

The place is exclusively for members, that is why it is quiet and peaceful. I guess we were the only ones who are so loud during that time. HEHE

Infinity pools, lounge pool, and lap pool are just some of the facilities of the resort. Jacuzzi is also available.

The beach has a fine, not-so-white sand, and a clear water.

Perfect view for relaxation!

Folding chairs under the trees are also available

Not-so-white sand

Anvaya Cove Nature Club is a perfect place for chilling out, and I guess not for team building. HAHA. But we still enjoyed our stay! Our team is actually planning to go back here. :)
