Boat Trip to Nagsasa Cove, Zambales

Nagsasa Cove from the boat

After the trek at Mt. Pundaquit and having some refreshments from Anawangin Cove, we then took a boat trip to Nagsasa Cove where my eyes were truly full with the wondrous scenery of the place! Take a look at the snapshots that I took on that 30 minutes boat trip. :)

After trekking Mt Pundaquit for 5 hours, we have arrived at the prestiged Anwangin Cove. In our perspective, at that time, it is the glorious place where we can find some refreshments that we have only imagined while trekking. Here's a taste of Anawangin Cove:

Conquering Mt Pundaquit

View at Mt Pundaquit's Summit

Arriving almost an hour late of our assembly time at Victory Liner Monumento, our first part of the trip was definitely challenged when the bus driver said that our seats were already taken because they have already accepted chance passengers. I was just quiet at the side together with the other travel bloggers since I just met most of them for the first time and I felt guilty mainly because they were waiting for me to arrive. After several minutes of murmuring our rights because we already bought the tickets ahead of time and how they have exchanged our seats few seconds after they have announced the last call, we were finally given our seats with the 4am bus to San Antonio, Zambales (although the previous seat plan was not realized).

Mt. Pundaquit-Anawangin-Nagsasa-Capones Itinerary

San Antonio, Zambales

I am grateful and happy to be invited to this full packed 2 days/1 night adventure of Ivan Lakwatsero as he turns twenty. Arriving at San Antonio, Zambales, we took our breakfast and bought food for 2 days, was welcomed by Pundaquits beach and mountains, and began our trek to Mt. Pundaquit's summit. Descending from Mt. Pundaquit is the Anawangin Cove and off we went (via boat) to Nagsasa Cove where we spent our night on one of the camping sites. After exploring the Nagsasa Cove, we proceeded to Capones Island where, aside from the beach, we can find a Spanish Lighthouse. And after that last stop, we headed back to our sweet homes with the captured memories in our heart that we will surely treasure forever. :)
