Sambawan Island to Tinago Falls

"Don't just be a tourist, be a traveler" - the back packer guy  

One of the best ways to spend this summer is either by swimming into the beach or by dipping into refreshing waterfalls. But what if you enjoy those two options just in one place? Isn’t it exciting? Well if you are thinking for that perfect spot then Biliran Island should be place that you should be going. You should try visit Sambawan Island in Maripipi, Biliran and the Tinago Falls in Caibiran, Biliran. :D

It is adventurous if you travel with your friends, but what is more adventurous if you travel with your new friends whom you just meet on that day. isn't it amazing? :D:D:D This trip was really fun and an interesting one because aside that i enjoyed the scenic beauty of the Sambawan Island and the Tinago falls I meet new friends which are very friendly and interesting bunch of people.

Meet my new friends. see picture below (from left: Kintoy, Rey, Weng, Imman, Kris, Sian, Gie Anne, Sam and Billy) well at least I remember all there names...clap clap clap :P . 

Sambawan Island

Unique and simply amazing, those two words could describe this tiny island but very pleasing to the eyes. It is unique because of its island shape and the big rocks that can be found there. The sands there are not the typical one which is fine but it is mostly consist of small grained corals. You can easily appreciate the beauty of this island especially when you go at the top of its hill where there is a watch tower built there which is just a minute away of trekking from the beach. At the watch tower you can see the top view of the whole island, the volcanic form of Maripipi Island, parts of Western Samar and even the province of Masbate.

Tinago Falls

It is already my second time to be here in this place but I'm still loving it. Here you can enjoy the refreshing water falling from above the mountain plus you can try mini cliff jumping (that's what we did). This place is perfect if you just want to feel the nature because it is surrounded by big trees. Its a must visit place especially this summer.
