Ever since I was young, we have always gone to Cagwait white beach to celebrate birthdays and weddings, and we even go there without any occasion at all. Cagwait white beach is a perfect place to enjoy the sand and the beach without going too far from our hometown, Tandag.
We got here last September, after our mandatory quarantine. It was a fun and quick dip, but it was all worth it.

Now I badly miss the sea breeze from the beach. I’m glad that more and more businesses are getting back to the normal world we used to have. Nature is definitely something that I’d love to explore.

Thanks for the info, Ron! Badly need to go to the beach. Somehow the lockdown is now back in the city. This is a very interesting place to visit. Soon in God’s grace, I can travel again!

Since you wrote about beach, now I want to go to the beach. I just hope it’s safe to be outside and enjoy nature. I love going to the beach. I miss Bantayan Island or even the resorts in Mactan. I used to have a planned visit to Siargao but it was canceled because of the pandemic. I haven’t been to Surigao and seeing the photos on your article, I just wish I can also have the chance to visit the place someday.

The moment I saw the photos, murag gimingaw na jud ko kaayo og beach especially nga ing-ana ka nindot. I love Surigao although wala pa jud nako nabisita ang mga places dha (the mountainous area only when I was young).
