TAHUB (COVERED OR HIDDEN) BEACH RESORT,CARAMOAN-all exclusive

July 5, 2010

TAHUB (COVERED OR HIDDEN) BEACH RESORT,


   
     

TAHUB (COVERED OR HIDDEN) BEACH RESORT,
Ang maganda po nito ay nasa beach po kayo kahit gabi.You can swim at night or do
beach walking for firefly  watching or just walking with the stars above you.
Yun usual route po kasi  ay nasa town stay ang mga tourist at ang location ng
town ay 15  to 30 minutes away sa coastal. Everytime they go island hopping,they
ride a jeep going to coastal.Nasa town kasi ang mga hotels.  Dito dinadala ng
karamihan ng mga tour services ang mga guests nila.But since mas may alam po
kami ng lugar,we forsee po the disadvantanges of the town and inconvience pos a
tourists.
Ito new resort ay maganda at last march,2009 lang nag open.White sand cove
beach.Located siya sa tip ng caramoan which hindi pa gaano napupuntahan ng mga
tourists because of the distance.Napupuntahan yun mga islands na bihira pa
mapuntahan ng mga tourists.
Malaki boat ang gagamitin (capacity 30 pax) sa pag island hopping so very safe
and comfortable.Hidi na bubuhatin ng mga kargador sa port kasi it’s a tradition
sa sabang port na buhatin ang sasakay sa boat.
Ang disadvantage lang, the convenience is all at the town. Sa tahub beach,
because of its distance,wala signal ang tv or hanapin ang signal sa celphone.
But if you really want to relax and escape the city life for days, this place is
for you.
Ang kaibahan naman po nito sa paniman ay talaga very exclusive yun resort.Sa
paniman po kasi ang mga resorts ay nasa barangay o kasama ng mga bahay. Kahit
pareho sila nasa tabing dagat, ang sand sa paniman ay brown at sa tahub ay
white. So kahit sa Tahub lang,okey na. This place is the best for TEAM
BUILDING,  (SEA)SELF EVALUATION ACTIVITIES, ETC. of the companies/groups and
organization.
So, if talagang gusto po nyo ng exclusivity of your group and nature, this place
is for you.
Thanks.

Secret Island Resort in Caramoan

August 19, 2009

Try our new package.Kadlagan tour new caramoan route.

The Tahub (hidden) beach resort island. It is located at the coastal of  Caramoan. A white sand cove with coconut trees. The area is still very isolated so it is very seldom reach by the tourists.
The sea at the beach is full of marine life such as fish, live corals, starfish,etc.which is very good for snorkeling and fishing. The resort’s back is a nipa and mangroove swamp forest  which houses crabs which can be spotted by lights roving the beach during dark nights. The mangroves trees are full of fireflies at night so firefly watching is a must at night or just simply strolling at the beach during full moon or dark moon which millions of stars above you in a clear night sky can make you full of wonders and excitement.
Since its opening last may,2009 up to the present, we brought pioneering groups to the island and all of them were simply amazed of the place.
The difference of this resort with the other resorts in caramoan is the nature itself and the exclusivity of the guests. The island is yours alone or with your group alone once you are booked with us. You can swim at the beach, stroll, or just simply relax, rejuvenate, or smell the pure, fresh air.
During the night socials,You can also sing your heart out loud till you drop at their videoke without thinking of the other guests sleeping or disturbing them with your singing because the night is your group’s alone.
Another is the location. Most of the hotels are located at the town which is a 15 minutes rides by jeep or tricycle from the port and 15 minutes ride again by jeep or tricycle to the coastal so you need to hurry going back to the town after island hopping before dawn and stay at the hotels at the town during the night.
But at the resort island, no need to worry, you are at the beach resort even at night.
Your meals at night and lunch is fresh seafoods such as fish,squids or crabs which are freshly catch at the sea. It can be served grill ,fried or juice it with coconut milk(gata).
The island resort also will give you tremendous serenity,tranquility and peace that the only noise you can hear are the chirping of the birds,sometimes cicadas or splashing of the waves which you will be persuade to do meditation or reflection.
So, If you want to go back at nature and experience it at most, the island resort is your choice. It s simply a paradise by itself.
If you are interested to be at the Paradise, just contact us and we will bring you there.
But because of the distance of the place, we require at least 10 to 20 pax per guests at the given or schedule date at the island resort for 2 days and 3 days package.Booking is per group only for every package date at a time to give every group an exclusivity to experience the island resort in their own.
See you and thanks for letting us be of service to you.

Sakat Sa Asog

February 4, 2009

Sakatt kan mga Urastigon

 

Date January 24-25, 2009

 

by Elma Padua and Ivan Rivera

 

 

We assembled at the Naga City CBD Terminal at around 6:00 am. There were six us: Ted Ruiz, a 56-year-old American missionary who could speak Tagalog and few Bicolano phrases. Boyet and Patrick, both long time mountaineer from Manila; Jojo Villareal, the climb organizer; and Elma Padua the lone female climber. We were supposed to be joined by another female but unfortunately unexpected events came up.

 

  

 

We boarded a bus to Iriga City then transferred to a jeepney to Buhi Municipal Hall. We spent a few minutes buying additional supplies in the wet market and took some pictures of the lake. Finally we boarded a tricycle to our jump-off point at Barangay Cabatuan. When Boyet and Patrick were checking their packs they found out that the first aid pack was missing so they went back to the town proper and luckily found it hanging on the Municipal Hall’s fence.

 

 

The hike was as “U trek” because of the shape of terrain. We took our lunch while on the trail nearby a spring faucet. As we moved on we felt our back pack getting heavier every step. Yet, when we were at a certain altitude we were rewarded with awesome view of the lake, the town against the background of lush mountain greens. The rain started to fall as we moved closer to our base camp. We decided to take a shelter in an unfinished chapel. When the rain stopped we continued our hike until we reached Camp Esplana, our base camp, at past 4PM.

 

 

At the base camp we hurriedly set up the tent because the rain was starting to fall again. Luckily there was an abandoned house nearby which we used as a place for cooking our food and socials at night. Evidently, the house caused us discomfort because of the stench goat droppings but our nose got used to it. While taking our dinner each talked about their climbing experiences and some information about themselves. After the dinner and socials we checked our tent and it was good and up but the groundsheet was soaking wet from heavy downpour. We decide to sleep in the abandoned house instead. We fixed our bedding yet it was difficult to sleep because the dogs and goats were trying take shelter with us plus the sound of the animals and the howling of the wind.

Early next morning we prepared our breakfast and suit up for the climb. The plan was to climb the peak of Mt Asog but our guides led us to the rim of the volcano crater. Mt. Asog is a dormant volcano. We went through the ridges hidden under trees and bushes and tall grasses. From the rim, we saw the bottom of the crater which was full of pine trees and dense vegetation. We spent few minutes taking pictures. There was no trail that led us to the peak from the crater so we went back to the base camp. It took less than an hour to go up to the crater and back down.

 

The ascent to the peak was difficult. We did not find the established trail instead created our own trail. We walked, climbed and crawled through the thick sharp blade of cogon grasses. The ascent was almost risky because of the terribly steep terrain. Later we faced a dead end, a vertical wall very close to the ridge and decided to settle there. From there we enjoyed the view and savor the moment. After few minutes, we slid down. The descent was easy and fun. We took our lunch in the base camp and packed up. From the base camp hiked down to Barangay Santiago then took a ride on a tricycle to Iriga City.

Kadlagan-TUKAD KAN MGA ORAGGON sa MT.ISAROG. SEPT.27-28,2008

September 15, 2008

 

Mt. Isarog in the province of Camarines Sur is highest forested mountain of southern Luzon, rising 1,966 meters above sea level. Known to be an inactive volcano. Once you get to one of its summit,you will be rewarded with a view of other Bikol volcanoes like Mt. Mayon. It is a home to many endangered plants, birds and animals that can only be found in the South Luzon region. The Southern Luzon cloud rat is native to Mt. Isarog and the largest flower in the world known as Rafflesia. Pitcher plants and wild orchids are abundant in higher elevation of the mountain. Wild boars,monkeys, wildcats and numerous species of lizards are still numerous in the parks. It has numerous streams and rivers that waters the numerous waterfalls. There are famous water falls like Malabsay, Nabuntulan, and Falls within Consocep Mountain Resort. Plenty awaits to be discovered. Mt.

Isarog throught Patag-patag trail is still one of the  major climb destination of Bikol of the Mountaineers. Kadlagan staff bring them to the peak of Mt.
