Blog #119: Lost in Paradise @ Sandira Beach

in Worldmappin3 years ago (edited)

Hey Hivers!

I hope everyone is doing good today. Our weather condition in the Philippines this time is not that good because in a few hours we will be expecting another typhoon to come in my place. Hopefully the typhoon will get weaker.

Well today, I will be going to share with you my recent trip in Bantayan Island. It was one of the best places that I have visited. If you will ask why, check this out.

Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations.

~Zig Ziglar~


I visited the Sandira Beach in Sta. Fe. I hired a tricycle to take me to that place. When the tricycle driver took a left turn, I was not able to control myself and asked him, are you sure this road is going to the beach? His adamant reply convinced me that we were not got lost.

The road going to Sandira Beach is rough, unpaved, and muddy when it rains. I am not discouraging you but I am just telling you exactly the road condition going to the beach.

You need to hold tight in the tricycle so you won't end up hurting yourself. I was silent while we took the road going to the beach. I only focused my mind on the road.

As we arrived to Sandira Beach, my eyes was slowly moving to the different directions looking the beach; the seawater; the shoreline but I only saw trees, wild grasses and plants. Where is the beach? I asked myself.

After paying php50.00 ($1) for my entrance fee, I was told to take this grassy path. I walked slowly because I am not familar of the place.

While walking, I saw this cactus plant with full of names engraved on it. I felt sorry for the plant and I got hurt because of what they did on it.

Here's the closer photo of the cactus plant.

I continued hiking, until my eyes sighted this majestic creation of God. I silently told myself that if I get lost and trapped in this little paradise, I would fully embrace my fate.

I immediately jumped to the shoreline. The sand was so fine and white. I took off my flip flops, grabbed my phone and took photo of myself.

I told myself to take many photos in this little paradise because I am not sure if I could come back in this wonderful place again.

As I first sighted the Sandira Beach, I fell in love in this little paradise. It was definitely a love at first sight.

While enjoying taking photos and hiking barefoot I captured this lovely photo of a mother and her daughter enjoying the seawater.

I have also captured another lovely photo of a family. They were having fun together.

The time I visited in Sandira beach, I was so grateful because the place was not crowded. I had truly enjoyed the moment I was there. It was full of tranquility.

Look how beautiful the place is. I know you also want to stay in this beach. I know while reading this, you love this place too. Am I right? (lol)

I enjoyed sitting in the beach and just stared to nowhere. It made me relax.

Since my time was just limited in Bantayan Island, I was not able to stay longer in the beach.

Although my stay was just too short but I was able to enjoy the wonderful scenery, the white and fine sand, and the wide shoreline. It was one of the best white sand beaches that I had visited.

How about you? What is the most beautiful white sand beach have you visited so far? Drop a comment below.
