    Sipalay and Kabankalan, Negros Occidental, the Philippines

    We started on the wrong foot. We were just a party of three, but one woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Actually, he did not even sleep a wink. At our 7AM call time, he was just about ready to turn in. Never mind that we had a bus to catch for a 6-hour ride to a remote beach, and that we could miss the last boat ride to our resort. Alas, the majority had to acquiesce to the lone game-changer.

    It was past noon when we boarded a Ceres Liner in Bacolod. All direct trips to Sipalay had already left. No ch ...

    Pulo Cave A Cunning Little Cave Within An Island

    Spelunking has been one of the interesting things that everyone must try, I've seen and have known a bunch of travelers who never get tired of exploring the inner paradise of the caves. Only just recently, when I visited the town of Sipalay, Negros Occidental during our Island hopping, our boatman introduced us to the captivating and cute cave that exists within an island.

    Could This Be The Sweetest Spot In All Negros

    Truly an unspoiled charm!

    Sugar Beach Sipalay is a charming destination where one may find it more tranquil and relaxing than other mainstream beaches in the Philippines. The beach is not congested with tourist and you'll find very few during the weekdays which adds up to its "unspoiled" charm.

    It is a tropical paradise with a Chocolate-hills-like scenery and calm white sand beach as if you were hitting two great destinations in one get-away! It is a perfect place for budget travelers and those who likes visiting off the beaten tracks.

    And most of all, a beach will never be complete w ...
