The
whole stretch of the beach is very clean with no wastes can be seen in the
vicinity .During lean season, not much people are seen in the area other than
fishermen’s boat parked on the shore. But during the summer days , the place is a favorite spot to cool
down from the heat of the sun. The sunrise in the area is superb as it is
directly facing the east.
My
first visit to the beach of Cagwait was during the time when our group decided
to have a side trip in the adjacent town since it is no longer advisable to
wander around when the sun sets after the Britania Group of Islands adventure.
We decided to harbor at Space Bar Resort. We
had a early bountiful seafood dinner as ordered from their small “cafeteria”. The
resort has some kind of videoke bars and billiard pool to entertain their
guest. Beers and other liquors are for sale as well.
Our
mission in the area was only to find a room to spend the night. But with the
beach we found we did not let the day pass not getting wet and dive into the
clean water of the beach.
It was truly picture perfect if only we have a better
camera other than our phones. Nevertheless we enjoyed the rest of the night by
belting high notes at the second floor of the open air function room.
It was
only the time of sudden brown out that we
decided to call the night off. Good thing that the resort has a generator to supply the electricity to our rooms.
Getting
there
Going
to the area isn’t difficult at all, though the place is a little bit away from
the national highway. Coming from Butuan City just take a bus bound for Tandag
City and inform the bus aide to drop you in Cagwait Proper. The fare is
approximately Php 200.00 with a travel time of 3-4 hours. At the junction of Cagwait,
you can take a tricycle or habal habal to the shores of Cagwait. If you wish to
stay for overnight there are lodges/resorts that are as cheap as Php 300.00 a
night. It is also suggested to bring your own food if you are a little picky as
there isn’t much to choose from unless you ask your host to buy something for
you at the market.
If
your are coming from Davao, simply take a bus bound for Tandag City and do the
same as above. Or alternatively take a bus bound for Butuan City and alight at
San Franz Terminal. From there take a bus or a van bound for Tandag City and
follow the same direction as above.

ReplyDeleteRight, cagwait white beach is a nice little quaint beach. Its very shallow waters is safe for children. We stayed at the LGU (the one with a floating stage). We also passed by Space Bar but they turned me off with 2 things. First, they had this yellow slide that goes out into the beach. It obstructs the view of the whole stretch of white beach. Is it still there? Second, they proudly showed us their "wild" animals. They had monkeys in chains, an eagle in a cage, and a sea turtle swimming in a filthy cement pond. Wild animals are supposed to be out in the *wild*, not trapped in a resort to amuse and attract people. Sorry I just got carried away. I should be writing my own post soon. Thanks for letting me post this comment if you are not going to delete it. =D
ReplyDeleteit's ok ann ....in fact it is one of my concerns "animals in cage" but i think it the issue has to be brought with the DENR ...they say they have a permit. That giant slide was there when we visited the place. we did not try it . Space bar is not really my ideal place to stay but with the urgency of settling down,we tried the place ... everything has its first time naman . Thanks for your response ann :)
