The Starfish @ Magalawa Island

My favorite hobby whenever I'm at the beach is snorkeling. So while my two girlfriends were sunbathing on the beaches of Magalawa island last weekend, while Peter was skin diving, I was out there in the middle of the sea, on full snorkeling gear, trying to take a peek at what's underwater.

Magalawa island is a nice small white island off the coast of Palauig, Zambales. It usually takes about 4 hours to get there from Manila. Click the highlighted link if you want to know how to get to Magalawa Island.

On this particular blog post, I will TRY to just share with you the highlights of our Magalawa island trip. I think photos do say a lot more than words, so I hope you enjoy this...

My friends and I originally scheduled our Magalawa Island trip for March 12-13, the same weekend when the Japan earthquake/tsunami was at its worst. Because of that, our parents have forbidden us from going, plus I had to leave for Boracay after that so the schedule was moved several times until we decided to make it May 21-22. Too bad Daena wasn't able to make it. It was the four of us when we did the Cagbalete trip in 2009. When the day finally arrived, Peter, Koryn, Joan and I didn't get much sleep at all since we were all so excited to explore another white island somewhere in Zambales. The last time my husband and I enjoyed a white island in the same region was when we went to Potipot island. We just hoped it wasn't as far as Potipot.
