Siquijor Island is not only known for its folklores, magic, premitive healing, and mysterious stories of supernatural beings. It also gives us the enchanting beauty of Cambugahay waterfalls. It's a five-level waterfall cascading from the top. Viewing it from the first time, the tedious hiking and trek downward would definitely be forgotten.
This was the exact scenery that captivated my eyes after all the vent and complaint I've done while walking downward. |
The hike, yes, I'd never forget how I complain while gasping for air, because it was really a long walk downstairs. I never tired in complaining you know. I love waterfalls, but I also couldn't get over with the long walks and hikings. If only these beautiful sceneries are displayed infront of the plaza rotonda and parks, I'd probably never get to experience nagging pain in my legs for many years now. I couldn't afford to see a doctor for this leg problem, so I have to bear it until I get old.
Re-touching lol. Because I was sweaty. |
This was the second waterfall. I didn't have the will to see the third one, because I was so darn tired. |
We needed to be careful here, because the rocks were slippery. |
This was the photo I took from my photo. I couldn't get balance, so this was the result. |
My friend, Walter, took this photo. The water was really inviting, but I didn't dare. I couldn't. I'm not a swimmer. |
I got my own version of the photo. lol This how the water looked like in my eyes. |
Other Country? Book a trip to Manila, Philippines
From Manila, book a trip to Cebu City.
From Cebu City, book a shuttle to Siquijor Island
From Siquijor port, ride a public vehicle to Lazi, Siquijor
Five-minute motorcycle ride to Cambugahay Waterfalls
The
locals were grateful and accomodating. No one would
deceive you, especially if you're a tourist and a foreigner in the place.
The island is actually more dependent on its tourism industry, so they wouldn't
be doing nasty things to tourist like us.
Finally, I posed. There were lot of takes, but I rather not pose them here, 'coz my face was really oily and sweaty. |
We didn't stay long, because people were starting to come. I didn't have plan to swim, and we still had to visit some other places in Siquijor then. Our destination was actually Salagdoong Beach Resort. Click HERE.
Thank you for visiting. I promise to post a little more than the usual. I am still going to continue amaze you with my nature tripping adventures. Have a great weekend!
Very beautiful. I always get envious when I see your posts ><

ReplyDeleteAng ganda!!! Ang sarap sana mag swimming kaya lang parang ang lalim, katakot for me lalo na hindi ako marunong lumangoy. hanggang photo op lang ako. Hope to visit Siquijor, someday...
ReplyDeleteramdam ko ang haggardness mo hehe..pero pag nakita na yung falls kakawala ng pagod diba?
ReplyDeletekaya pala fresh pag dating sa picture kasi kahit haggardo versoza na sa lakaran may retouch pa pala before ang picture taking hahahah
ReplyDeleteKapag Siquijor ang naririnig ko, parang mga mysterious stories talaga ang pumapasok sa isip ko.. Pero nang makita ko ang mga images dito, tutuo nga pala! Enchanting talaga ang lugar! Ganda! Sarap magtampisaw! Bewitching! beautiful!Nice shots ha!
ReplyDeleteNice place.. Hello phioxee, I decided to drop by to let you know that I replied to your comment in my post. Just click my name and you will be taken to my post.. Thanks. :)
ReplyDeletewow the waterfall looks so refreshing. It reminded me of the trip I look in class to a national park in Temburong, brunei. It always felt great to be connected to the beautiful mother nature!

Nice blog. Would you like to follow each other? =)
ReplyDeleteI noticed seeking waterfalls always deals with long walks, treks and trails. Most of the time falls are located in hidden places - inward the mountains, downward trail, endless stairs and long travel trips before doing a trail. But the reward after is truly worthy!
ReplyDeleteGanda! I'm not a swimmer din kaya kung ako maliligo dyan e dun lang ako sa gilid gilid! hehe!
ReplyDeleteI envy you... ^^ what an amazing place ^^
ReplyDeletekiss and have an happy start of week

ang ganda naman jan :D
ReplyDeletefascinating!
ReplyDeleteAwwww....kawawa ka naman. Ano ba nagyari d'yan sa iyong paa? Ipatingin mo na kasi sa doktor 'yan. Mahirap kung lumala pa iyan.
ReplyDeleteAs for me, I don't mind the long walk as long as my destination looks really good. Nature spots that tend to be located at hard-to-reach places are less prone to destruction caused by humans. Naiinis kasi ako kapag nakakaita ako ng basura sa binibisita kong lugar.
Good place. I want to visit it. :-)
huwaw! naka gawa na ako ng essay about sa sa siquijor walang duda maganda nga! Sana makita ko rin yan sa personal!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips and introduction! I've been to Cebu only once, but would return and see these waterfalls!

Wow, this is so amazing! I never knew Siquijor had such a wonderful natural beauty and waterfalls. I've only set foot on the dock there when we took the fast waterjet ferry from Dapitan to Cebu, and unfortunately the waves made my wife sick, so we didn't spend much time there at all. Now I really want to go sometime! Thanks for this great post and photos! Thanks also for following my blog (Black Swamp Cornucopia).
ReplyDeleteBest regards!
