mySpot | Davao - Surigao del Sur Trip 2013

La Entrada Beach Resort, San Agustin, Surigao del Sur

If there's one thing I learned on this recent trip that I had with a few friends, it's that your itineraries should be flexible and interchangeable if possible.

Me and my friends went to Davao and Surigao del Sur to check out some jaw-dropping spots in Davao and Surigao del Sur. Also, it was my first couchsurfing experience.

We (they) already had planned our activities ahead of time, though I arrived earlier to spend a few days in Davao City (that explains Day -1 and Day 0 on the itinerary). Unfortunately we missed our bus and suddenly everything changed (except the destinations)...

Good thing we have a GPS-enabled phones, a few contacts on some places, and just enough pocket money to move from one place to another. It was pretty hard at first but the experience and the adventure was priceless.

mySpot | Britania Group of Islands - San Agustin, Surigao del Sur

These are just some of the photos I took using my phone when we went see Britania Islands in San Agustin, Surigao del Sur. An unexploited piece of paradise waiting to be found.

Crystal clear water and fine sands awaits you there. Plus you also get a chance to swim with a few jellyfish... :P (Don't worry, they don't sting) I also got a chance to climb up on one of the islands to get a nice view on top.

We stayed on La Entrada Resort and Restaurant though there are other lots of nice resorts to choose within the area.

It is easy to get there whether you're coming from Davao or Butuan, or Surigao... just take any bus or van that will pass San Antonio in Surigao del Sur... make sure you tell the driver you need to get off at Salvacion (sure they know that) and it's just one tricycle or habal-habal ride away...
