Ilocos Sur: Pagsanaan beach


Just few minutes away from Magsingal's public market lies their pride -- Magsingal's Pagsanaan. Although it's not as breathtaking as the fame Philippine beaches, it still is something to look forward to in case you want a short ride and an affordable place. Since Magsingal is small town (not saying this with conviction), one can stroll around it without worrying of lacking the time. It's pretty obvious reality though, that this town is no popular to you, or to many, but Magsingal has beauty which will surprise you. It has three beaches namely Bantay Boneng, Pagsanaan, and Miramar; and I've come across a site saying there's also a batis or a stream in the town. Surely, these are the benefit of being an island country, and the benefit of being near South China Sea. Two of which I've seen: Pagsanaan and Bantay Boneng. Now I'll bombard you with photos I took.



Just learned that the water will be a bit brown after the rain

The waves are calm

Just a small basin of water

Mushroom?

For nganga daw?

There's a heap of rocks on the left side of the beach. Good for posing in photos.



Look closer. See the cute little creature?
Hungry kiddo

Mini cave

Islets?

Camouflage again! :)

Out in the sand

Walking

And walking..

Lost mushroom

Rocks, corals.. of course it's rocks! Just wonderin' how it gotten here

Going home. Taken in a moving trike again.

Basically this is how the road looks like going in Pagsanaan however there'll be areas which is still under construction, and some are not cemented but it's totally okay.

Wrong panning. Kids on Kuliglig. Missed riding on it!

Just want to share my first panning shot :)

How to go there:
From Vigan ride a mini bus going to Magsingal town. It will only take 15-20 minutes ride. Ask the driver to drop you on Magsingal market and hail a tricycle from there. And it's another 15-minute ride going to Pagsanaan beach.
