The Calaguas is a group of islands in the Philippine province of Camarines Norte. It includes the major islands of Tinaga Island and Guintinua Island, the minor Maculabo Island, as well as several other minor islands. Our main purpose was the island of Tinaga where the famous long beach called Mahabang Buhangin is located. We came all the way from Manila to experience its powdery white sands.
We were supposed to stay in Calaguas for 2 days and 1 night only, but thanks to my friends' friends, we got to extend our stay for 3 days and 2 nights. We arrived Friday morning and we were supposed to leave Saturday afternoon. There were less people when we arrived and more people arrived the next day, including my friends' friends. One of my friends' friends was organizing a group called Plan B or Plan Beach and invited us to stay one more night and rode us back to Manila.
This was my first summer getaway of the year. Check out the photos of this amazing place:
