Anawangin Cove Getaway

In this chaotic world all we need is a day of relaxation. A day away from all the stress and a day without toxic people.

If you want a “budget friendly getaway” where you can chill and pamper yourself away from the city. I highly recommend this place.

This place is perfect for every occasion or without any ocassion. My girlfriend and I decided to visit this place during our anniversary and at first I feel hesitated since this is a long travel for me and I am not used to it. But to make the story short she persuaded me to go with her and if I didn’t come with her I might regret it and miss half of my life. 😅 Luckily she has this convincing power that makes me decide to go there.

Why I recommend this place? It’s because it is perfect location for those who love mountain view and seaside view. Try to imagine a place.

A fascinating place when mountain meets the ocean and footsteps find its way to give life a beautiful and memorable day.

Anawangin Cove is located at Zambales which is known for their extraordinary scenic views and beautiful white beaches not to mention their sandbar that is truly amazing to see. It is 4 hour drive from Manila but I suggest it’s better if you go it with group or any travel agencies for you to have a guide in an unkown place and have a perfect iterinary for the activities to do during your stay.

When we go to Zambales we ride a boat going to Anawangin Cove. You will already see how their mountains are preserved. How beautiful creatures God made. How relaxing the view was.

When we get their at our destination we put up a tent in our own and chill for a moment. After some time the coordinator prepare the food in the means of boodlefight. Boodlefight is like a long table full of food such us rice and proteins and fruits that you will eat using your bare hands. And for me it was an amazing experience. Their food taste good. Very delicious that all the hunger on the long travel will wipe it out.

After the boodlefight. We started our iterninary by going to their wishing mountain. You need to climb to go their but it’s worth it, all the sweat when you will see the beauty at top. You will see how magical the view is. Your mind will be blown how on earth this kind of tourist destination is just a Wow! 😮 I was speechless by then. All I just said is “WOW”

Ow oh! The place has no signal which is one of the reason I highly recommend this place. For you to relax and unwind without disturbance.

Around 4 in the afternoon. We decide to walk in the isle. And walking slowly like saying “THIS IS MY DAY” and “I DESERVED IT” feels like walking at the red carpet taking your time thinking all the walks of life. ❤️❤️❤️

We also try hiking and sunset viewing. Hiking in a cloudy day is perfect for us because the sun is hiding 😅 and the see breeze is so fresh.

For me sunset view is my favorite since it is in my bucket list that I can sit and relax in the sand at the beach watching the sunset with my special one. My favorite person. My comfort zone. ❤️❤️❤️ I feel ticklish in my heart when we watch together the sunset in silence. It’s very solemn and breathtaking place.

At night time when we are about to sleep, we heard fireworks, not knowingly there is also a fire dance. So we decided to join the group and watch the show. The performers are very professional and it’s my first time watching a fire dance. And it is overwhelming night because fire dance with fireworks is good together. Only in Anawangin you will experienced that.

Other activities such as stress release booth wherein you can throw bottles there and put all your force, all your worries, all your hurdles and struggle and when you try it I assure you. The burden you will feel will just vanish away.

Night passed by and sunrise came the group decided to do island hopping. During Island hopping we stop by at Capones Island. The water is also crystal clear. We take some photos that is very instagrammable that no need to edit because of it’s majestic view.

After an hour the group decided to go home and another 4 hours of travel passed by and HOME SWEET HOME. 🏡😘🥰❤️

Lastly, here are my tips and reminders when you decided to travel this type of destination.

1st: Bring powerbank or you want to missed all the photos you might capture there.

2nd: Use waterproof bags or your things will be splash by the water and all gadget will be wasted.

3rd: Bring sunscreens or you will be grilled😅

4th: Bring insect repellent since it is a mountain there is a possibility there are mosquitoes. We don’t want Dengue right? 😊

5th: Tell your loved ones that there is no phone signal their so that they will not get worried when they cannot contact you during your stay.

Lastly, sharing is caring. We want someone to experience something new right😉

Enjoy!!! ❤️❤️❤️
