Baler, Aurora

[ladyrevolver]

I've been here last july, 2009 during the Maria Aurora's fiesta. Really, really nice place. Here are some pics:

Hehe. Tagalog na tagalog ka din ha. Pag dating mo dun yung mga tao, sobrang tagalog.

Honestly, i have no idea how much it would cost for a tourist. I have so many relatives there so I don't need to visit the place with so much money.

But cost of living there is not that expensive, so with 5K for 2 nights prolly will go a long way. I'm not sure, though. Better ask Hisbenz here. ^

ah... sige salamat. tiga aurora ka pala talaga. sige tanungin ko tong quote na nasa baba ng quote mo..

We only spent a night in Baler since we do back packing and we're only with surfing. Sa accomodation, we stayed at Bahia Baler Garden Resort and we only paid for 1,900 for 3 people inclusive of complimentary breakfast. Two thumbs up to the room, spacious with cable tv, hot/cold shower and its really along side the surfing area.

If you're fond of surfing, P350 lang per hour that includes a trainer.

gano katagal ang byahe at san banda yang rresort na yan? malayo ba sa bus station? kung mag sight seeing kami, madali lang ba ang paikot-ikot dun? la kami sasakyan kasi. commute lang talaga.

Anong oras ang unang bus dun na pa-Cabanatuan o Baguio? Saka sa Canili na ba ang daan ng lahat ng bus?

IF you go on commute, that would take you around 7-8 hrs. inclusive of stop over.

Malapit lang yung Bus station sa beach, wala pang 10 mins ride thru trike. Magakkalapit lang yung church, museo de baler at yung surfing area.

wow salamat. di naman ako marunong lumangoy so surfing is out of the question, sight seeing lang gagawin ko. di ba delikado pumunta dun? madalas daw ma-holdap yung genesis bus.

That was my previous question about the holdapan. I believe it was just a sole incident. We arrived safe naman. Enjoy

Happy travels! =)

[project_ichigo]

hehehe nakapunta na rin dito sa wakas. hehehe sulit ang 8hrs na byahe.

wala lang kwenta yung pasalubong center sa bus terminal. same halos sa mga keychain sa bagiou, baler lang ang tatak tapos ang mamahal pa ng t-shirts.

sarap ng food sa bay's inn. recommended ko yung tapa nila.

[Hisbenz]

^wow nice to hear. I love their food too.

[project_ichigo]

^ thanks sa mga tips on how to go there.

sana di na ma-develop masyado yung mga beaches dun para maretain yung natural beauty ng place.

highly recommended na place to to unwind.

[Hisbenz]

^ i agree. Honestly unti unti nang dumadami ang tao dun. I mean, we cant stop development but i hope it will not be as crowded as other beaches. I remember going to Anawanging way back 2007 and 2008. Now everyone is going to that place.

Did you try surfing?

onga. sana di ma over develop. yung anawangin bakya na. i went there last year, ibang iba sa mga nabasa ko sa mga blogs na written nung 2008 or 2007.

i was fortunate to experience the beauty of dikasalarin beach sa property ni sen angara, 30mins boat ride from sabang beach. walang sinabi yung anawangin dun. yung ang totoong white sand(unlike yung lahar sand ng anawangin na bloggers claim to be "white") at yung fresh water river ng anawangin na almost stagnant na nung pumunta ako last year. yung river ng dikasalarin ay dumadaloy pa.

Di ko na try kasi medyo tipid-tipid ako sa budget, inuna ko kasi sight seeing with the tricycle driver. i'm planning to return there to try surfing at mag fishing nalang.

[aslowruler]

Tumira ako sa pinsan ko sa Maria Aurora which is another town of Aurora for over a year at ang masasabi ko lang eh maganda nga ang Baler. Mas okay na ang travelling ngayon dahil sementado na ang daan na dati eh rough road pa.
I'm planning to spend my summer vacation next year there.

@project, yeah you should try surfing. Iba kasi yung wave sa baler when compared to zambales or la union kaya mejo na inlove din ako sa baler. haha. The wave is just perfect as well for beginners.

yup. nasa to-do list ko na yun. i'm planning to go there ulit next month kung may makakasama ako na mahilig din sa adventure.

ok nga alon dun sa sabang.


^^ mabilis na nga daw ang byahe ngayon compared dati. sana lang hindi limited ang byahe ng aircon bus pabalik ng maynila para di naghahabol ng oras.

yup, mas mabilis na ang byahe. Thanks to sctex. Hopefully gawan na ring at least hnaggang gabi ang byahe pabalik manila. As far as i know hanggang hapon lang ang byahe ng mga Van routung to cabanatuan. At yung Genesis Bus naman alam ko sa umaga lang siya available.
