Baler, Aurora – Revisited

We arrived at exactly 4:00 am to Genesis Bus terminal (Cubao) to catch the first trip (4:30 am) to Baler. I suggest that you catch this trip to avail the “sleeper or lazy boy” bus for convenient ride. Travel time from Cubao to Baler is 6-7 hours.

As soon as we arrived at Baler’s town proper, we took a tricycle and headed to our chosen Hotel/Resort. Personally I like Bay’s Inn and Bahia de Baler for their good service and decent rooms. Price is somewhat affordable and their food is good and cheap.

After lunch (we ate Gising Gising – A must try in Baler !!!), we hired a tricycle for 400 pesos to tour us in Digisit and Lukso Lukso area. Yes folks, tricycle is the only mode of transportation around Baler.

Some snapshot around Lukso-Lukso/Digisit area…

I didn’t took much of photos on these areas coz I already conquer it well during my last visit. You may view the photos I took here if you back-read my blog.

After few hours, we head back to Bay’s Inn and took a sunset shot. Did I say sunset ? Oh well… there’s no literal Sun that Sets in Baler, only sunrise. But it won’t stop me for taking pictures before dinner time.

We call it a day… and I slept early. Next day schedule is to wakeup early and head to Ampere Beach (the reason for my 2nd visit).

 

Digisit, Baler Aurora

It’s been years since I wanted to visit Aurora (Baler in particular) but it’s only last month that I got the chance. Baler is famous for surfing. But, it’s also a photographer’s eye candy.

Though I’ve seen countless blogs and pictures about Baler, I was still surprised by its magnificent scenery.

If you love swimming, I think Digisit is not the best place. For it has a shallow rocky shores. Farther deep waters are home for the strong waves. But for a photographer like me, it’s a gift. Something we can appreciate behind the view finder.

I fell inlove with the place in an instant, a must visit for everyone. I’ll back soon.
