Marimegmeg Beach, El Nido

We had the chance to visit Marimegmeg Beach when we did the Inland Tour. There were no island tours due to Typhoon Queenie. It was a blessing in disguise. I've been passing and seeing this side of El Nido but never got chance to go down there and see what it's like.




Marimegmeg beach is a long stretch of beach with just 3 resorts in the area. It is located 3km south of El Nido town. Going there will cost you about Php 150 per way for a trike ride.



We immediately fell in love with the place. The day trip turned "we had to cancel our 1 night stay in Corong Corong and book 1 night instead here". And so it happened. We were also disappointed staying at Talindak, so we were really excited to move out and spend our last night at Orange Pearl Resort. 


We inquired for a room rate and reserved immediately after looking at their rooms. Well, more of an ocular inspection. 


It was our best decision. On our third day, Typhoon Queenie made a quick landfall and all island tours were still canceled. We paid the cancelation fee at Talindak (negative review here), and made our way to Orange Pearl Resort for check in. 

I will post more of Orange Pearl Resort here. 

For now, please enjoy the magnificent views Marimegmeg Beach has to offer. Next time you are in El Nido, please don't forget to make a stop here. Better yet, book a night!

Nacpan and Calitang Beaches in El Nido

There was a storm in El Nido when we visited end of November 2014. Typhoon Queenie canceled all island tours so we were left to do an inland tour. Luckily, it was not a strong typhoon and there were only scattered rainshowers. 

We took off around 9AM with our trike driver to get to Nacpan and Calitang Beaches first. It was a 45 minutes hot, bumpy and scenic tricycle ride. 


All of the tourists that day went the same direction so we skip visiting the falls, the first destination for the inland tour, to avoid the crowd. 


And the beach as if we were the only people there. It's so beautiful. All the bumpy ride with the muddy road we had to go through was all worth it.










We only stayed until around 11:30am to meet someone at the airport, before heading back to town for a late lunch. 


There were small cafeterias along the beach as well should you decide to have your lunch there. 


We didn't swim as we were warn of a dangerous rip curl. Swimming is at your own risk. No lifeguards too! Yay!

December BDJ BOX: Cover Girl Exclusive



The anticipated December 2014 BDJ Box came at my door today. Hooray for another box full of make ups. 




Here are the contents 



I am still using the Benefit make up samples so these babies should wait until probably next month for me to use them. Or I can just give them away.
