Place: Camayan Beach Resort

Beach - It is what most people think during the hot summer vacation. The fine white sands, crystal clear or blue waters, fresh air, swimming, sun bathing and relaxations... I asked my kids if they wanted to go swimming and they said yes. My mom suggested Camayan Beach Resort, which is most likely the nearest from our hometown. We went there along with my sister, my kids, my mom and my grandmother.

The Location

Thanks to Waze application, we did not have problems on our trip to go there. The route is almost straight from SCTEX. I was unable to see any public transportation going to the beach, though.

Parking space seem to be plenty even if it is on-season.

These are the photos at the entrance. Though they are taken before we left the resort.

The Facilities

Since this is a family getaway, I asked my kids to act as my models as we roamed around and they were very supportive.

After my sister and mom bought the entrance tickets, we went directly to the cottages beside the beach and ate our pack lunch. I asked apu (grandmother) when was the last time she went to the beach, and surprisingly she said this was her first time.

The Beach

The kids had fun and we spent the whole time swimming. The water was almost calm and even with the hot weather, you can feel a sudden gush of cold water passing through your body. I wish apu (grandmother) would at least wade in the water especially this was her first time on the beach. I tried to convince her but she refused. Either she was afraid or concerned with her arthritis.

My son had new friends on the beach. They said they came from San Fernando, Pampanga, near our hometown, Angeles City. When I got the time to ask for their names so that I could tag them on Facebook, they already left.



On the left side of the beach, you could see the sun set. I tried my best to capture the sunset using my camera phone.







Good thing our phones can act as flashlights because after the sunset, the beach was dark and the waves became stronger.
