Read and view the photos of our Day 1 in Ilocos here.
The most exciting part of our tour was done on Day 2. It is when we explored the beach and the waters of Ilocos. I love anything with water. I always wanted to be a mermaid which I believe to be my past life. Haha! Anyways, we started with....
Blue Lagoon
 |
| There were A LOT of people. Good thing, the beach is too wide to accommodate all of us! |
A lot means a lot. Almost all cottages were taken and there were people everywhere. Thanks to our ever reliable guide. He had saved a spot for us prior to our arrival. Before heading to the beach, we stopped over a mini-market where we bought fresh seafood for our lunch. The resort/cottages we stayed in offer cooking services. :)
Next...
Bantayan Cave
 |
| Just for a good photo, we climbed this cliff. |

Bantayan Cave is situated a few meters away from Blue Lagoon. It is not actually a cave where you would have to bend to enter and scramble to get to the end. It is just an opening in between a rock formation. I had a very awesome stay in that place. I love the feeling of being on top of the sea. That is definitely love for me.
 |
| I can't find words to describe this scene. Admit it, it looks like a postcard. :) |
Paraiso ni Anton
 |
| I don't know why it is named as such. |
We all, actually, laughed when we heard that we are heading to Paraiso ni Anton. The name itself seemed to be a title of a sexy film. Haha. But this place is definitely a 'paraiso'. The water flowing down the rocks is fresh water! By the way, it is potable and very clean. We even filled a bottle each.
Kabigan Falls
where we stayed for almost 2 hours!
 |
| Happy me! :) |
Kabigan Falls is my favorite. It has very cold water which was very relaxing. :)
We only had one left to see on Day 3 and that was the Kapurpurawan Rock Formation. I was so happy to see this wonderful creation. I tell you, I could live there!

 |
| Big waves! |
 |
| And bigger waves! |
 |
| It was too windy that my hair was all over me most of the time. |
And that was the end of our Northern Invasion. I love and forever will love Ilocos.
If you have time and budget, please do visit the wonders of the North! Ilocos is LOVE. :)
See you on my next Road Love!

I, too, have fallen in love with Ilocos when I visited their very charming region last summer. The scenery at Patapat Bridge is really breathtaking; I took a picture of it and used it as header in my (temporarily in hiatus) travel blog. =)
