Bolinao, Pangasinan

It was way too exciting to see a wonderful site while riding your way to the beach. Unfamiliar faces and new environments. . . new experience.

Three hours of ride on a bus from Pampanga, it was worth the wait.

It was on the Month of April and reaching Bolinao during this time was quite peaceful, there were not much people walking along the market since it was Holy Week.

People are simple , just like a normal province elsewhere. People are nice. Along the way, the fishy smell only proves that you are getting closer to the beach. It was obvious that people from Pangasinan earn their living mainly from fishing. While riding on the tricycle, you pass by fishermen on the shore and those fish vendors with their small booths for selling sea foods.

It was fun to see such an environment, you feel completely away from the stressful city.

It was summer! And on months like March up to end of May, it was the worst time to just walk in for renting villas. Bakasyonistas are all booked in and so you have to just settle on what is available. So never ever book a day before.

Just as reaching the beach, it was exciting to have a site of the wonderful blue sky, the white sand and of course the clear water. Cannot wait to see the sun set to get the best of the view.

Since it was a low tide on that day, sea shells and sea weeds were scattered all over. To walk along the long white sand makes you feel so perfectly light.

Undoubtedly, this is one of the best places our country should have pride.
