Gentle waves at the beach are fun. The sun shines, the sand is sparkling, and the people surf.
In the Philippines, the coast of San Narciso in the province of Zambales is one of the country's finest beaches and a surfing destination. The Crystal Beach. A surfing paradise in the North.
In May 2019, I traveled about 4 hours from Manila, the Philippine capital, to reach this surfing spot. Its proximity to Manila makes it an ideal weekend getaway to escape stress and regain vitality briefly.
We need a place like this. Great for total rejuvenation of the body, mind, and soul.
Crystal Beach has its surfing school for beginners and a surfboard rental for any surfers.
Have I dared go on surfing?
I love water adventure and have long been interested in learning about surfing, but I was still looking for a better moment for me.
And so, I was closer to my dream of surfing. It just takes a single step, a show of interest.
It's good that a country like the Philippines is blessed to have one of the best surfing spots in the world.
The Cloud Nine waves of Siargao in the South are world-renowned and the surfing spot of La Union. It's a favorite destination among local and international surfers and beach lovers.
I was just fine with gentle waves. It's ideal for beginners, and watching some people surfing is already a fun water show.
