The Hidden Paradise of Burgos: Cabongaoan Beach
Philippines
is faithfully blessed with nature’s wonders, making it one of the most favorite
tourist destinations in Asia. Yet, there are still countless striking places that
remain undiscovered; one of which is the Cabongaoan Beach of Burgos, Pangasinan.
Burgos is a
small town located west of Pangasinan. Travellers and tourists pass the town
when going to the famous white sand beaches of Dasol without knowing that the
town is a home for some of natural wonders and vibrant environment where land,
sea, and air meet – thrilling white sand beaches and zipping falls that is unquestionably
worth-visiting.
Located in
Sitio Cabongaoan, Brgy. Ilio-Ilio, Cabongaoan Beach is a perfect family-friendly
beach because of its calm waves and wide shores suited for picnics.
Walking to
the powdery sand and very clean and clear water of the beach while witnessing
the dramatic sunset with the warm fresh air give a sense of serenity. The very
calm atmosphere of the environment and the mesmerizing view on the shore will
give every visitor a peace of mind. After swimming, one can always relax and
take a nap on the shade of trees.
Cabongaoan isn’t
only for family bonding and relaxation as it also offers adventure sites. For
adventure seekers, the clustered rocks on the beach are best for rock climbing.
If you really want to challenge yourself, locals suggest to start climbing from
the beach not on the shore as it requires stamina because of the waves hitting
the rocks.
One can
also try snorkeling, bodyboarding, and sea kayaking on the clear water of
Cabongaoan. (April Dela Rosa/Reginald Agsalon/Photos by Iking_joy) FOCUS
