Serenity in Calatagan, Batangas
February 25, 2007
Caisip Beach Resort, our destination in Calatagan, Batangas.
During my stay in my previous call center, my colleagues and I planned to have a break from our stresful job in this resort. Unfortunately, it did not push through.
Now, my other set of friends wants to have a quiet and peaceful place where we can relax and have chitchats without thinking of the time and the people who can hear our angst.
I thought of this resort. I contacted the owner. Fortunately, after a year, I still have the contact number.
For 1,500 pesos, we can rent the "kubo" overnight. The beach entrance is already included. We can also bring an extra appliance with no additional cost.
We left QC-Kamias at 12:00 afternoom. Unfortunately, we rode the wrong bus and headed a wrong route. We arrived at the resort at 6:00PM.
From the gate, we saw the golden sea as the sun was beginning to set. There were ooohhhs and aaahhhs as the place is really a beauty. The sand is brownish and fine. The water is clear and cool. There were starfishes too! Some lying on the sand, some are buried under. You can smell the sea and the wind is refreshing.
The cottage is like a kubo in horror movies where a manananggal can just enter it through it's wide-opened window and kill us all. Hehehe!
We set a bonfire and roasted some marshmallows. We also had barbecues and hotdogs.
Morning is a great time to explore where some sea creatures are visible as the tide is very low. At noon, the clear water comes back to the shore. That's a good time to swim and bask under the sun.
Though we spent an almost 6 hours travel time, I think it's worth it.
