The serene beauty of Jawili Beach
Since our flight going back to Manila is through the Kalibo Airport, we decided on spending a night at Kalibo and explore the hidden jewels of the town. I've been to Boracay already so I'm not too keen to see it.
Kalibo on the other hand is giving me too much excitement that I made sure we visit all of the attractions here. One of the attractions in our itinerary is the Jawili Beach located in town of Tangalan.
