Carabao Island Pictures & Stories

Thomas and Anouk New Divers from Switzerland


		After staying at Ivy’s Vine Resort on Carabao we went to Panglao for 2 nights only, because the place was too touristy for us and the hotel too dirty (we had not booked and that everything was taken, we have to back on what remained) . We just took the time to make 2 dives to Balicasag. (We wanted to dive to Pamilacan but our level of diving was too low). We saw a baracuda's school We next went to the land to the Nuts Huts. Ballade in the jungle, visits the chocolates hills, 50 km bike in a day to see the tarsiers because we are biking without card, and we were a bit lost! ; 0)) Suddenly we saw magnificent corners! The hotel was good, but the manager urging us to vivire in summer camp displeased us. We ensuites left for Palawan. Once in Puerto Princessa we have learned the need to 9 hours of jeepneys to go to El Nido. We therefore remained in the area and have plunged in Honda Bay. We found beautiful fishs and giants clams! We spent New Year there with an evening at ruhm sprayed with orange soda! We wanted then go to Banawe and Sadaga but there was too much time on the road. So we decided to go see the lake Taal and its volcano. We are then left for Tagaytay then Talisay. Talisay has been our worst memory of the philippines. A dead city with people wicked. Arriving in the evening, we were happy to leave the next morning at dawn Anilao direction for a final dive to the Philippines! We went to the hotel Planet Dive where we have almost returned the mild of Ivy's vine resort! We performed 5 dives. In view of the sea snakes, a white point and the most wonderful: 5 mantas !!!!! It was for me the most beautiful dive site in the holiday! We ensuites flew to Manila for our 3 days of vacation. Throughout our vacation we have been very difficult with the hotels because we start our holiday with the best! Thanks again a thousand times! Please Trent, could you send me your recipe for pan cakes? I never succeeded in finding a better !!!!! The next holiday we will move ... to Philippines. And what is sure is that we will not fail to come to you and make a hello enjoy your resort! The best memories of our vacation is Carabao! Anouk et Thomas
