Just arrived from my Butuan-Surigao Trip..
Well, there's nothing much to say about the trip. The planned Siargao Experience didn't pushed through because of time constraint. It was just when we are in Surigao when we finally confirmed the actual travel time from Surigao to Siargao.
It would take us 3-4 hours (ferry ride) going to Dapa in Siargao. And from there, it's a 2-hour land travel going to the surfing area. In which to estimate, would eat 5-6 hours of travel. We arrived in Surigao Sunday afternoon. The ferry going to Siargao leaves at 4am the next day. And we have to be back in Manila today, Tuesday.
No chance at all..
But we had a good time anyway. Here's what we did:
At Butuan City, we stayed at Almont Hotel which we loved so much. And at Surigao, we stayed at Philippine Gateway Hotel (which is also good.. be we loved Almont better! hahahaha!)
Since we cannot have the Siargao thing, we just went to Mabua Pebble Beach and the Floating Village at Surigao City.
And food trip at both cities!
You would be amazed on how clear the water is at Mabua Pebble Beach. Dinaig and Boracay sa linaw at linis ng tubig! though of course there is no sand along the beach.. mostly rocks. But it's really beautiful. And it has a beautiful sunset view.
The Mabua Pebble Beach...
Crystal-Clear Water... Amazing!!!
Blissful Sunset
We just spent the entire trip on food trip... that's why, kelangan kong mangarag sa workout ngayon... We tried eating at Mama Aida's, Weegols, and Mario's Grill. Mario's was the best among all the food trips that we had...
