Land Attractions in Bolinao
as part of the
WESTERN PANGASINAN SERIES
___________________________
This was part of the land tour we had during our stay at Puerto del Sol Resort which included the lighthouse and the white beach. I thought of making a separate post on each attractions as they all deserve the spotlight. This is also my chance to share my photography and I hope the pictures will speak of the place more the descriptions you can read here.
Patar Rock Formations is a living proof of how turbulent the waves of South China Sea could get during rainy season, this place is a photographers perfect spot.
I would say, perfect for pre-nups or simply taking dramatic pictures with the barkada. It was almost sunset when we got here.
Climb on the rock and you get another perspective. There are more rock formations on the other side. The best time to go here is in the afternoon before sunset. That way, you can get dramatic photos as the sun sets in the South China Sea.
How to get here:
PUBLIC TRANSPORT: Take bus from Victory or 5 star stations in Cubao to Bolinao. From town, take a tricycle to Patar. Fee free to negotiate as the fare are sometimes subject to changes depending on the driver and / or the weather.
PRIVATE CAR: Drive to Cape Bolinao. Turn left before reaching the town hall or Saint James Church ( 1 km before the town hall) Follow the end of the municipal road (which is barangay Ilog Malino) then turn left to Patar. You can find the rock formations at around 2 kms from the lighthouse and 1km before the White Beach.
If you stay in one of the resorts, feel free to ask for a land tour, they will be more than happy to assist you. It was Puerto del Sol in our case who arranged the tour.
