Plan ko din makapunta jan. Thanks for sharing lalo pa with pics. Karma for you ts.

aba ang ganda ng location sir
at promising din siya as tourist destination nice sir nice
can you tell more about those places naman pwede?
-
Salamat din sir, welcome din kayo magtanong sa iba pang imformation about dito at para di kayo mataga dito. Para mas maganda po ito contact ko dito, highly recomended po, mababa po sila maningil at maayos kausap. 09293832877-Ka Precy/ Ka Ed, mag asawa po.

Opo maam, saka di kailangan malaki budget dito, mapupuntahan niyo lahat yan sa halagang P500-P700 per person, kasama na trike from San Antonio Proper, Boat ride from Brgy. Pundaquit-Anawangin-Nagsasa-Capones-Camara. Para suli gawin niyong 2 days kayo dito. Day 1, unahin niyo Anawangin tapos sa Nagsasa na sa tanghali, dun na din kayo mag stay/overnight kung gusto niyo di gaanong crowded. Kinabukasan punta na kayo Capones Island, may dalawang option kayo dito, 1st puwede kayo magtrek papuntang lighthouse, madaling trek lang po yun, next kung di gaanong malakas alon, puwede kayong ibaba mismo ng boat sa tapat ng lighthouse, maghagdan nalang kayo, pero advise ko piliin niyo mag trek, para mas maganda view at kakaibang experience kasi malilibot mo halos buong island. Yung Camara Island naman po seasonal lang yan mapuntahan kasi minsan pag mataas yung dagat eh nilalamon po yung pinakadugtungan ng dalawang isla, bale kasi dalawang isla yun eh, yung nagdudugtong sa kanila yung pinupuntahan, mga August po kayo pumunta kung gusto niyo makita to. Tungkol po sa Mt, Pundaquit eh, hiking po talaga to at kinakailangan ng paghahanda at pagkukundisyon ng katawan, well established naman po yung trail pero advise ko na kumuha po kayo ng guide, P500 po ok na yung guide, mababa nayun kung marami kayo maghahati hati, di niyo pagsisisihan pag nasa summit na kayo, sobrang ganda ng view at kakaibang feeling. Basta try niyo po yung ibinigay kong contact.

ANAWANGIN COVE VIA MT. PUNDAQUIT
San Antonio, Zambales
Major jump-off: Brgy. Pundaquit, San Antonio
LLA (summit): 14 53'59" 129 94'24", 464 MASL
LLA (cove): 14 52 41 120 04'04", 0 MASL
Days required / Hours to cove: 1 day / 4-5 hours
Specs: Minor Climb, Difficulty 3/9, Trail Class 2
BACKGROUND
Pristine and secluded, the beach of Anawangin Cove is fast becoming a popular tourist destination near the Subic, Zambales area. Surrounded by pine trees and carpeted by volcanic white sand from Mt. Pinatubo's eruption, Anawangin cove looks like a winter scene in the tropics. The sand is very fine and beach very wide. During low tide, the beach is very long and wide and the waters calm, making it ideal for swimming.
Although the usual way to Anawangin Cove is by pumpboat from Pundaquit, there is land route passing by a hilly area known interchangeably called Mt. Pundaquit and Mt. Anawangin. The trail passes by shrublands and grasslands, affording views of the nearby mountains. Medium-sized bamboo and ornamental-looking plants deck the paths, at times transforming the trail into a garden-like environment. At first flat and then moderately steep, the midpoint of the trail is the summit of Mt. Pundaquit. The measured elevation here is 464 MASL. And then the descent goes to the Anawangin side of the mountain. According to the locals, the name Anawangin is derived from the Ilokano word 'nuang' which means carabao. The reason behind this are the wild, sometimes aggressive carabao that roam freely in the slopes. After 2-3 hours of descent, pine trees would herald the beach, which can glow into luminous white with the sunlight. Basic facilities such as a small store, shower rooms, and huts are in place in Anawangin even as the locals try to preserve its being 'untouched'. The cove is perfect for camping also.
From Anawangin Cove, you may head back to Pundaquit by pumpboat, or include nearby Capones island in your itinerary. Capones Island has beaches and an authentic Spanish-era lighthouse. Either way, you are 30 minutes away from Pundaquit. You can tidy up at the houses then proceed to Subic for a hearty meal.

[user]parabola[/user] kapag sumisibat kasi ako eh gusto ko lagi kasama mag ina ko. Uubra ba sa conditions ng lugar kung kasama namin ang baby boy namin na three years old? So far sanay na siyang mag overnight sa beach nang sa tent lang kami natutulog?
Kung kaya niya, kakayanin ko kayang umakyat sa Pundaquit ng karga ko siya? Kahit pano kundisyon naman ako due to regular workout and combat sports. Nung almost 2 si baby ay nakarga ko na siya sa 10k fun run.

Yes sir, maganda naman yung conditions dun, katamtaman lang yung lamig sa gabi, nakapagsama na din kami dun 3 years old na bata, basta make sure lang na may flysheet yung tent niyo in case na umulan kasi tent lang talaga ang puwede niyong tulugan dun, pero sa anawangin sir may lugar dun na may mga nipa hut na na maarkila, di ko alam price.
No sir, dinidiscourage ko kayo maghike sa Pundaquit na may kargang bata para na din sa ikakabuti niyo, bukod kasi 4-5 hrs na paghike dun eh may mga trail na mabato at may mga slopes na very steep eh medyo exposed pa siya sa araw dahil sa walang gaanong puno dun. Saka sa pagakyat kasi ng bundok eh kailangan free yung dalawang kamay mo, maski nakashoulder nga lang sir sagabal na yun sa pagakyat, kailangan backpack. Advise ko sir, palampasin niyo nalang muna yung pagakyat sa pundaquit kung kasama si baby mo, mag boat nalang kayo papunta Anawangin pero kung wala kayo kasama bata, try niyo akyatin, sulit ang pagod pag nasa peak na.
-
Ayos sir maraming salamat sa info. Isa kang dakila. Pagbalik ko ng Maynila next year pasyalan ko yan.

Welcome sir, happy trip.

woo ang haba hehehe pero ayos yun info sir
im really interested talaga na makita yan mga yan

Sir Parabola,
I have been there dati ng dpa masyadong sikat yan place. And konti palang ang nagpupunta karaming mga nag traverse from Pundaquit going to the cove. Un mga 2 to 3 groups lang ang nsa cove. Di tulad ngayon grabe halos wla kanang place to pitch your tent during week ends. At even sa Capones Island dami nading basura sana un local gov't and brgy. must do clean up. Last time kc dami napulot na basura along the trail magsasawa ka talaga.
Sayang ganda ng place need lang nila limit ang number ng tao sa anawangin cove to minimize being so crowded un place at magkaroon nman serenity un mga dadalaw sa lugar.
Hopefully ma implement sa lahat ng tourist spot sa Pilipinas na ang lahat ng basura na dinala nyo sa lugar must be brought back ulit ng nagdala and be a responsible tourist.
Even Nagsasa Cove at Silanganin Cove minsan crowded nadin daw sabi ng some friends ko na dumalaw sa Island.
::)

I just learned na okay din pala mag skimboarding sa Pundaquit.

Ang ganda talaga ng Pilipinas ko. Thanks for sharing!

Yeah sir bohica and mam rai, iba na talaga ngayon ang anawangin at nagsasa, overcrowded na, dati sinasabi ko maganda anawangin, eh overcrowded na, ngayon naman nagsasa, kaso ovecrowded na din, wala ako problem kung madami na pumupunta dun, the problem is wala disiplina yung iba, yung ugali nila sa sa siyudad eh dinadala nila sa mga ganung lugar, tsk. tsk. nakakalungkot.

sorry sir pero di ako makapost dahil sa ibang kadahilanan pero interesado ako sa itsura ng anawangin nung 1996 (5 taon makalipas huling pagputok ng mt. Pinatubo na dahilan kung bakit may magandang anawangin) , tanong ko lang panu niyo natuklasan yung anawangin nun at ano itsura nun, madami na ba puno at mas malawak ba ang ilog kasya ngayon? thanks in advance.

Natuklasan ko lang ang Anawangin nung naghahanap kami ng buhangin para sa project namin sa may San Marcelino. Maganda naman ang lugar medyo natabunan nga lang ng lahar dati, mas malawak daw ang ilog bago pumutok ang Pinatubo ayon sa mga taga San Antonio.

nice picture at nice scenery...+karma for you
Ang gandang puntahan nito sir... nami-miss ko tuloy yung pagiging mountaineer ko dati....

uu bossing crowded na sya ngaun.. di tulad ng dati... pero masarap balik balikan

The best dito, lalo na kung overnight tapos tent lang tutulugan.

Pag summer maglatag ka lang ng sleeping bag o kaya mag hammock lang ok na pag overnight dito.
