We woke up a little early on our 3rd day in Ilocos Norte to walk around the beach. Even though the weather was a bit gloomy, we still took some pictures around the beach.
KVR's beachfront. (Swimwear from St. Francis Square - 350. Haha!)
Powdery white sand.
Bed weather.
Hannah's Beach Resort & Convention Center is about 3 kms away from Kapuluan Vista. We stayed at Hannah's beach front for a few minutes to swim. Too bad, I wasn't able to see Hannah's swimming pool.
Blue Lagoon
Much better spot.
We checked out before 12 noon and one of the staff members in Kapuluan Vista introduced us to our tour guide. We told the guide to tour us around Patapat Viaduct, Bangui Windmills and Kapurpurawan Rock Formation because those were the most "scenic" places I preferred to visit. He agreed to our request for the price of 900 PHP (including the tour guide fee in Kapurpurawan). Each tour (North and South) costs 600 PHP. You will have to pay 150/head for a different tour guide that will take you to Kapurpurawan Rock Formation.
It will only take about 10-15 minutes tricycle ride from Blue Lagoon to reach Patapat Viaduct.
Patapat Viaduct
30 minutes tricycle ride from Patapat Viaduct to Bangui Windmills.
Bangui Windmills! *teary-eyed*
Souvenirs sold in Bangui. 1 set of small Bangui Windmill refrigerator magnet (5pcs.) costs 100 PHP.
Kapurpurawan Rock Formation is also 30 minutes away from Bangui Windmills. Before trekking to Kapurpurawan Rock, we decided to take our lunch at a store nearby.
BAGNET! (100 PHP for 1/4 kilo - good for two!)
Finally, our last stop. Kapurpurawan Rock Formation!
Spectacular view.
Moooore!!
I wasn't comfortable wearing sandals so I took it off and enjoyed walking on the rock. Our guide in Kapurpurawan was so kind that we gave him a tip (50 PHP) after the tour. He even helped us find a bus to Vigan.
