Antique | Boracay | Seco Island Summer Trip


Antique | Boracay |Seco Island Summer Trip 
May 6-12,2019





 Another wandering time with my cousin!



This cousin is the closest to me. We were stick together since we were young. 
We even became classmates during our second grade in elementary and then during our third and fourth year in high school.
We also went to the same college! But we were enrolled in different course.

Last May, just the two of us, we went home to our dearest hometown, Antique to attend our cousin's wedding. 

We’ve witnessed beach sunsets, mountain views, province life once again. We so missed this!

Kawa Inn

  • Kawa Inn (Malabor, Antique)- for affordable stay
  • Calawag Mountain Resort (Tibiao, Antique)- a river front resort with different amenities that are close to nature you can enjoy! Kawa Hot Bath and Fish Spa is a must try! And also water-tubing or river adventure! We also have the boodle fight meal in this resort!
  • Bugtong Bato Falls (also in Tibiao)
  • Rice Terraces - yes we have our very own!
  • Pandan River- (Pandan, Antique) the cleanliest river in the Philippines
  • Malumpati Spring (also in Pandan)
  • Mararison Island (Culasi, Antique) -here's my blogpost for your reference :) 
  • Seco Island of course!
  • Our beaches and a lot more!







And then the day after our arrival we decided to go to Boracay!

Boracay is just two hours away from our hometown. 

This was our first time to go back in Boracay after it was closed for renovation and we can visibly see the improvement. 

Nice to see you again, Boracay! Your white sand still didn't fail to amuse me.







Two days after our Boracay escapade, which was also the day after our cousin's wedding, we then went to Seco Island!

I consider this as one of the hidden gems of Antique!

Our call time was 2 a.m. but the boat that we're riding started to sail at past 3 in the morning.

We've witnessed the milky way sky! Sorry, I don't have photo because my phone and cam didn't permit.

Lovely sunrise also welcomed us! 



And we also saw some dolphins before finally reaching the island.

Seco Island is a secluded island paradise in the province of Tibiao, Antique (my birthplace/hometown!).

White fine sand beach around the 4-hectare island, bluish crystal-clear water, solitude, "disconnect to connect" feels, unspoiled beach, presence of colorful sea shells, star fish, hermit crabs, alluring waves, long sand bar and a lot more! 

The three-hour boat ride was worth it!






We were back home at past 5 in the afternoon. 

When you're planning to visit Antique, please include Seco Island in your itinerary! 

And here's some of the best spots to explore in Antique:

I am so in love with my hometown and with Boracay as well! 


P.S. Kawa Inn and Calawag Mountain Resort are my relative's family business. :)
They have  Facebook pages that you can check.
