KWEBANG LAMPAS & PUTING BUHANGIN, PAGBILAO QUEZON
KWEBANG LAMPAS & PUTING BUHANGIN,
PAGBILAO QUEZON
HERE'S THE TRAVEL GUIDE 🙃
Kwebang Lampas....
Quezon Province has always been a favourite spot when it comes to beautiful islands, white sand beaches, crystal clear waters and island hopping activities. Compared to touristy destinations that will cost you thousands of pesos, Quezon wears one of the crowns for the most affordable places to visit in the Philippines.
The famous Kwebang Lampas is located in Isla Polo, Pagbilao Quezon, a four to five hours drive from Metro Manila. Basically, the name of the island was coined as the island doesn’t only offer its visitors a white sand beach and clear waters but it also offers a magnificent cave that can be visited during low tide, around 7am to 10am. There are two families managing the disputed area. The ownership issue is not yet settled and the case has been moved to the Supreme Court. The only problem when visiting this place is that everything here is too pricey. I suggest that you bring everything you need. However, nothing beats a good experience, right? This island truly worthy to be added to your 2020 bucket list.
