^Okay naman ang cottages sa LGU. Makeshift CR lang ang meron pero malapit naman sa poso kaya hindi naman masyado problema ang water. Yung sa far right side ng Calaguas facing the beach, sila yung may pinaka decent na CR. Naka tiles pa :) Pero Mas mahal entrance dun. Dun kami lagi sa LGU kasi maganda panoramic view dun, the best talaga! Good luck sa trip nyo sis! :)

I'm back!

Finally, I was able to see this place! Everything is so picturesque!  ;) I'm glad I listened to my bro. Share ko lang scched namin:

7:45pm-6:00am Superlines (from Cubao to Paracale)
6:00-7:00 Paracale market. (Mejo nagtagal kami since we waited na makabili ng gas si Kuya Joseph)
7:30~9:30 Boat ride (The waves showed us mercy. Nag-enjoy kami super kahit biglang bumabagsak ang boat ng bigla.)

Next Day:
11:30 am~1:30 pm Boat ride (It rained heavily the night before kaya super maalon. Gahd, we never saw this kind of waves before. In our province, we often describe the sea as "namamaga" pag ganito. Our boatman said, when we were already in his house, na indeed that was a rough ride. Maliit lang bangka namin but magaling lang siguro si Kuya magmaniobra. Literal na para kaming nagbo-boat  surfing sa taas ng alon coming from the northwest.

2:00~3:00 Van to Daet
3:30~1:00 DLTB Daet to Cubao

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We stayed sa midpart ng island according to Projectgora's advice here. Makeshift nga lang and medyo matagal ang paghihintay sa CR, esp pag may kasabay kang naka-package tour. But unlimited ang water. Mabait un caretaker, as in nagpapahiram sila ng gamit. Mas madaming nagsistay sa part na 'to.

Siguro reminder lang sa mga DIY, make sure na talagang magpupulot ng kalat. I was a bit irritated sa katabing cottage namin kasi medyo makalat sila. Literal na may plastics ng mga chichirya under their table.

We had fun talaga sa lugar. Beach bumming. Sa sobrang saya namin, we offered drinks to everyone na makakausap namin (random pips). Kahit yun caretaker nakailang tagay. hehe Kahit nairita kami sa mga tao katabing cottage, we even offered na magluto sila ng rice sa portable stove na dala namin. Masaya lang talaga ang ambiance dito. Camping was a bit of a challenge so we felt we should share our things to make other people's stay more comfortable.

^great trip report sis @zelda! Tama ka sa magpulot ng kalat, kasi madaming tourists dun na over sa kalat! Kaya nga kami nag dala na lang ng eating utensils, kesa mag paper plate at plastic cups kasi napakarami talagang basura ang naiiwan.

Thanks for sharing your experience sis :)

Try mo sis mag inquire sa boat man. Kay mang boy or kina kuya joseph. Pwede ka nila hanapan ng kasabay. For sure may magpupunta ng Calaguas ng ganyang day :)

Check ko sis if kakayanin. :) then i'll pm you if okay.

Btw parang mas sulit pa if sumama na lang sa mga tour package/travel agency sa kamahal ng boat. Tsk!

Pushing through my calaguas trip though 2d1n lang kami kasi di ko ata kakayanin magcamp out ng ganung katagal without a proper cr haha! Anyway nagavail na lang kami ng tour package from northlink para less hassle and i think mas tipid given the very steep price ng mga bangka dun. Tsk tsk.

Ahahaha oo nga sis. Kung hirap ka sa camping Calaguas isnt recommended for 3d2n. My h2b dun lang natuto magbomba sa poso because i need to respond to nature's call, i had to do it 5am para walang pila dun sa CR. Kaso nga, we need to use the poso because no other source of water. Yung pinang toothbrush namin eh drinking water naman. the rest, bomba mode talaga! Ang Saya lang :) First time nia raw. ahahah  ;)

2013 pa sis!  ;)
Nope, nag package kami sa hulabaloo.  ;)
Reasonable rates sia at saka dalawa lang kami ni h2b that time.
Maganda mag DIY kung group of 8 or above. Kasi lahat dadalhin nio eh, tent, gas, food, water, ilaw, fees.
For two, almost same lang sa package. Less hassle kasi wala kaming bitbit pag package  :)

^sis check mo sa boatman nyo kung okay ang weather. Minsan kasi maganda naman panahon dun. Pero kung maulan, cancel nyo muna kasi baka ma stranded lang kayo.

pansin ko lang ha, every 3rd week of March may dumarating na bagyo. last year din kasi merong LPA kaya ayun hindi kami natuloy sa Calaguas. Hanggang Kinamanukan Island lang kami... So sad!  :(
