25th of November at Malapascua...

At the port of Maya upon arrival......
One side of the Maya Port......
Malapascua from a distance.....
While waiting for more passengers......
  and I almost jumped off the vessel having seen this.... so tempting..... and to think this is just a few  feet away from the port.....while the vessel was being pushed a bit further to a deeper part.....
A Swiss couple on board......
 
 
 
 
 There it is....Malapascua at a distance....
Few passengers......
 
 
 
 
 Closer....closer....closer.....on one side......
on the other side.....and the clear waters......super super tempting.....ggggrrrrrrrr
 As we get closer.......
 on one side.........
and the other....wwhhhhooooowwww

The one and only ....."Malapascua "
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  

This is not even half of what Malapascua can really offer.....
 

 The far part of their so-called "  daang barrio"......



...amongst the not-so-accessible secluded nice part of the island....
 

 Bantigue Cove.....
a nice place on the other side....
 
 

Then came another inviting place.....
 

Enjoying few minutes of a nostalgic sunset at the lighthouse :-)
 
 
 
 


Heading back to the civilization of their barrio.... it's getting dark :-)
 

 Then darkness sets in.....
and I can't think of anything else but having my much needed rest  after a nearly 5hours road trip and 4hours solo island wandering....whew!!!!..... such an Xciting yet challenging day :-)
 


 And after a night's rest.....
came the super invigorating sunrise :-)


Stared at the scenery for few minutes.. knowing this won't be the first and last time I will set foot on Malapascua :-)

Then came the bit sad yet real part of heading back to Daan Bantayan :-(

 From a distance.......
excitedly looking forward to spending more and more memorable moments on a  paradise named... Malapascua :-)
