Puting Buhangin and Borawan in Quezon, Philippines

We love the beach so we decided to go swimming again, this time, beach camping in Quezon. During this trip, we needed to bring our own tent since we will sleep on the beach. Just like any camping, we also brought mini cooking materials and our own food.

This time, together with our officemates, we took a bus going to Lucena. The terminal that we went to was the Jacq Liner Terminal near LRT Gil Puyat Station. We alighted at Lucena City Grand Terminal and boarded a mini bus going to Padre Burgos. After 2 long bus trips, we rode a tricycle to reach our contracted boatman. From there, we took a boat (with machine like the one in Puerto Galera) up to Puting Buhangin and set camp in there. 

Kwebang Lampas in Puting Buhangin

Lala got stung by a Jellyfish; thank God we were able to burn the sting immediately since we had tequila and calamansi. Just avoid one place in the beach that has no net. 

There’ also a nipa hut food stall in which you can buy food from breakfast to dinner at anytime of the day. A little bit pricey but the food is good. We took a shower in one of the rentals in Borawan, you can take a bath for just 20php!

We enjoyed a lot during our stay in there not just because of the camping, but also the beach. The sand is powdery white like the one in Boracay and in El Nido, Palawan. Maybe that’s the reason why they named the place, Borawan.
