I managed top squeezed a two day vacation with my friends. We went to Pagudpud,Ilocos Norte,it's in the Northern Part of the Phillippines and I must say it is beautiful there.One of the most lovely places I went to.
I so love the beach! the blue ocean..wonderful landscape! I hope I can go ther again. For those of you who are not from the Philippines I encourage you to go and visit, you'll not regret it.

I have never been to the Phillippines, but if I came I think it would be for the people more than anything. All the Filipinos on Mylot are so very friendly. I've been to several beaches, several oceans, but my favorite beach was the one by Playa del Carmen in Mexico. It was so beautiful! Although I think the Caribbean could beat that. My parents went to the Bahamas and brought back pictures of the water. It was so incredibly clear and blue!

hi cefaz! seems you had a fun vacation!
i haven't been into Ilocos but i have heard of Pagudpud. my former officemate was from Ilocos and she was the one who told me about it.
anyway, we just went to Hundred Islands at Pangasinan last Saturday and it was an awesome place! the beach was beautiful there too! and the islands were just amazing! the ocean is blue green and the sands are white! and you can choose which island you would like to stay for the rest of the day. the islands have different beaches you see. some islands would have deeper water. and we stayed on the Children Island because we had kids with us and we wanted them to enjoy swimming. Children Island has shallower water but there are parts too where adults can swim freely. the place was totally gorgeous! if only they had operational toilets. ^__^;; well, i don't know with the other islands but Children Island definitely doesn't have a working toilet. .

I have never been to Pagudpud... but my friends went there when i was abroad... and they made it a point to make me jealous about it... these were the friends who a always travel with... we went to different places in the Philippines... and it was sad that i was not with them when they went to Pagudpud...
Judging by the photos that they showed me... it seems like a real beautiful place... the long hours of travelling by bus is worth it... i hope i will be able to go there in the future... if not with my friends... with my family...

I have been to Pagudpud several times and I never get tired to seeing the place. Have you seen the Blue Lagoon there? Have you dropped by Maira-Ira? I am a certified beach freak and I think I have visited most of the best beaches here in the Philippines. Pagudpud is very much similar to Boracay except that Pagudpud is not as commercialized as Boracay. I visited your blog and I should say that you have good pictures posted there.

Hello cefaz_21,
I have not yet to take any vacations since last year due to my busy work schedules. I planned to take a vacation with my family last year but had to cancel it. I am waiting for the right time to take some off days and go to places that my husband never been to. I love beaches and islands. There are many fascinating places here too. Hope one day, if I plan to go to Phillippines, I will be able to visit those interesting places there.
