SPARKLING FLOAT PARADE (Tuna Fest 2011)

Where could you find a giant tuna drinking pineapple juice? Where could you find a submarine in the beds of sea treasures and marine gardens, as if a portion of the ocean disembarked? Where could you find a Coconut Island in a tuna? How about a giant tuna cake?... Unbelievable?...  If you can't answer these questions, well it's just that, you've missed Gensan's most awaited event--> the Sparkling Tuna Float Parade. 

The celebration of this year's Tuna Festival was a grandiose one as proven by the parade of giant floats intricately designed to glow in the main streets of General Santos City. In addition, the train went more lively with the dancers in costumes representing their own float. 

The participation of the companies, establishments and institutions in Gensan only tells everyone that although they compete with each other, they are united in one goal. That is to make the city grow and progress economically as tagged, Tuna Capital of the Philippines.

Amihan sa Dahican (Tease Pics)

Dahican Beach Panoramic View (click to enlarge)

Sunrise Waves

Everyone's been crazy hating the rainy season. But aside from those who are bored and tired of going to school or work, there are some adventure-seekers who would love the rainy season especially if it brings the monsoon winds. I'm talking about the wave riders- surfers and skim boarders alike. The mightier the wind blows, the stronger the wave goes. Thus, the more challenged and excited they are. 

Landscape View of the Coconut Beach

'Tis the season that surfers and skim boarders flock on the shores of this 17km stretch Dahican Beach in Mati, Davao Oriental, waiting for big waves to take their stunts. Yes, you don't need to go farther. The waves in Dahican can somehow be compared to that of Siargao or La Union, although, the latter places are considered to be the surfers' haven, internationally referred. Dahican is more of a skimboarders' nerve centre. 

And if you're just looking for some activities such as beach sports
(frisbee, volleyball, football), the beach is open wide for you and
your buddies to enjoy.

Britania Group of Islands

Woohoo! It's been a while since my last update... 48 years?!!! But anyway, I'm back! I am back... in featuring more of Surigao del Sur... such a wondrous place... (",)

The Laagan Adventures Jump

Of course you've heard about the Hundred Islands of Pangasinan, right?- A few of the 7,107 islands making up the Archipelago of the Philippines (High Tide or Low Tide). I'll be talking about islands, but as what I've said above, I am featuring one of Surigao's pride in terms of tourism- the Britania Group of Islands.

"Britania Islands are accessible through boat rentals available all day round.
The first island (Boslon Island) is about 10 minutes away from this port developed
by the Municipality of San Agustin"

San Agustin in Surigao del Sur is gaining reputation about these 25 unspoiled islands which are refreshingly beautiful. Not to mention the untouched coral reefs nesting on the beds of the Philippine Sea and gracing the vivid colors of marine life. The municipality is recently developing affordable tour packages for tourists and adventurers alike. I was not able to hop into all of these islands, but let me show you why this part of Mindanao should be included in the list of Philippines' Most Liked Tourists Destination... (",)

Boslon Island

Minasingin Island

Hagonoy Island

Hiyor Hiyoran Island

Isla Verde

Isla Verde

Litik Island

Panlangagan Forest Island

Taguan and Hiyor Hiyoran Island

San Agustin is a municipality in Surigao del Sur reachable either by land, sea or air. Land travel will take about 6 hours from Davao City. No matter how long the ride is, the fact that these islands will offer you the chance to escape from the busiest and stressful urban life, Britania Group of Islands is definitely a recommended travel getaway in Mindanao.
