Let It Begin 2ksixteen

First Stop Of This Year's Journey

As I've mentioned from my previous blog ( https://malurulida.blogspot.com/2016/02/did-you-enjoy-on-new-years-day-in.html ), me and my boyfriend ended up spending the rest of my holidays in the beach. 

We decided to go to the sleepy town located in southern Cebu. Best known as a place of great diving, colorful underwater and the best snorkeling site called MOALBOAL. I've been here for a lot of times already but still could enjoy everytime I visit, especially this year that my man was with me. We also visited Kawasan Falls located at Badian town on the next day. Our original plan was to only have a 2D/1N trip but due to a lot of passengers going back to the city, we couldn't able to catch a bus. We decided to stay again for a night in Lambug beach in Badian. It is 15 minutes away from Brgy. Matutinao, where the bus stop located when you are from Kawasan falls. 
It was around 4PM when we arrived in Lambug beach, It was our first time and we were amazed looking at the view, it was simple, natural and yet to be developed. We decided to just use a tent instead and it was a dream come true for me... I haven't tried using tent and indeed I was glad and delightful to have had tried it with my man. For us, it was a fun adventure!
For those who haven't visited yet, let me share our simple itinerary.


From Cebu City to Moalboal:

We took about 2.5 to 3 hours going to Moalboal. We just directly went to south bus terminal and looked for a Ceres bus, fare was about P110. We asked the conductor/driver that we were going to Moalboal and they dropped us off to their town. If you are not in a hurry, you can also ride a Librando bus bound to Badian but it is a little slower than Ceres bus, and if you want a more comfortable one, you can use a van located at One Citilink Terminal, it takes less than 5 minutes from south bus terminal on foot.

When we arrived in their town, my boyfriend were shocked seeing those numerous motorcycle /habal2x driver trying to convince passengers to hire them for going to the beach. Since I experienced a lot here, I was able to manage the situation and could avoid being ripped off. He asked only P50 for 2 people but we gave him P100 since he was kind to us and he helped us find a hotel nearby the beach. We found the only one available room in Basdaku for P1,000 per night.

At 2PM I walked around, soothing under the sun and saw this fantastic nature

I forgot to share that we arrived at 9AM here and slept right after we checked in. Hunger woke me up so I searched for food outside and saw this emerald sky. My "Me Time" while he was still asleep.

This was not filtered, swear! It looks like I'm knocking on heaven's door and being opened and accepted.
GRATEFUL!


I so love sunsets.. so we decided to enjoy swimming while watching the sun setting. Wonderful!!!




These are just some of the memories we had in this sleepy town. Thank you Moalboal! I'll be back again~





He looks having a blast in these photos, right? Because he really did!
Kawasan Falls
