In 2015, I had my first time camping experience In Anawangin Cove Zambales, Philippines. It wasn’t common in my country to have camping site for the local people. In this place, people from nearby provinces and tourist can have the thrill to experience to do camping and cook some seafood at the seaside. It wasn’t luxurious to stay in islands in Anawangin Cove. But the worth of getting away from the busy life in the city can boost one’s energy.
Let me explore you in these untouched islands in Anawangin Cove.

@ridingbet It is one of the seasides of the province. I also tried to go to a river in Plaridel before and my mom used to wash the clothes there.

@Shavkat that is a beach, right? our camping was in a river bank. and the waters were cool despite the sun. hmmm, anyway, the sun's rays before don't cause sunburns.

This view is so beautiful. I ever camped on the beach with my husband in Beihai from my country. It was my first time to campe on the beach and it was quite windy at that time. I even doubted whether our camp would be flown away Unfortunately after that we don't have camping experience any more because there are not many camping places. I still keep a camp at home and wish one day we can camp again.

Yes, I like going to the beach. I make it a point to visit at least one beach every summer. Yes, I've spent time camping in the beach. Stayed at Talisayin Cove. That is a couple of minutes away from Anawangin.

@hereandthere Before we went to the island, we bought from the center of the town. But there is a small store on the island, too.

I love the beach and even though I live near it I rarely go there...
I did go camping once when I was at uni... We camped near the beach and how cold it was at night...
Thanks for sharing your camp experience.

@Shavkat Whenever I get upset with my other half and need time for myself, I would drive to the beach and listen/look at the waves.... Night time is the best as all housework is done...

@Shavkat we can become a poet by looking at the beach and listening to the waves

I have a photo of my Anawangin trip but the quality of the photo was not as good as yours. I went to Anawangin in 2009. Long time ago.

What a beautiful destination. We have indeed camped on the beach but I did not cook seafood. We ate seafood but mostly in restaurants.

My colleagues went there this summer. Although visiting a beach will be an awesome idea, I still feel not excited on it because I don't know how to swim. That is the reason I did not go to Bali on my international trip.

@Shavkat Yes, it is a good idea too. We usually spend our school summer outing in the beach.

Back in my highschol days we did so much camping along the beach.
Since we are only high school student then, we don't have much extra allowance to pay for cottage rentals.
So, what we did is, bring a tent , light, some firewood and camp a little far from cottages.
It was fun, I miss those days
