The Cove
Going to the cove, you can either climb through the mountain, or hire a boat. We chose the latter. When you take the boat, what will welcome you is an eye-popping view of the cove. It's like going to another world — majestic!
The cove has its panoramic view of the mountains of Pundaquit; making you feel like you have the cove on your own. The sand is fine, powdery ash.
The sides of the cove are surrounded with lime stones, beautiful rock formations. There you might see some fishermen with their rods, waiting for a catch.
The Forest
One of the factors why I think Anawangin is perfect is its closeness to the woods — you have a beach and a forest at the same time. These agoho trees are ideal during noons when the sun is up and scorching. You can have walks with fresh air on your face, or pitch your tent there instead.
Anawangin is also known for forming its river when the tide is high. When we went there, though, it's low tide so the river was a bit dry with slow flow of water.
The Stay
There's no hotel or rooms in the cove. It's either you rent a kubo or pitch your tent. Either way, it's prime to experience the island life that way in a short while.
Ask the locals if you can set up a bonfire. They sell woods for it, and they can even light it up for you.
The Climb
There's a short climb on the side of the cove where you can have a bird-eye view of the cove. The climb was worth it! Try climbing it before sunset.
Overall, our Anawangin experience is one of the trips I treasure for it reminds me good friendships and beautiful escapes.
