Hello hiver good day to you all, today I'm sharing with you another adventure of calming scenery and a wonderful adventure with my friends.
We are assigned by our teacher to do a travel vlog as our last project in the quarter. So me and my friend's suggested many beautiful spots we could visit, but at some point I remembered blue hole and many rumors spread that it's nice there, so we suggested our leader that it would be our destination.
At first our trip to the blue hole tuboran, is just a plan that my friends have discussed,
and we all still have a second thought about it, because the tuboran is very far from our place, but that didn't stop us because we are all eager to go to such an amazing place, so we all agreed and arrange our schedule and budget for our trip.
Saturday 8 Am month of November, I arrived at my classmate's house so we could go there together as planned, while waiting for the others to arrive we took some photos so we won't get bored(and for memories as well 😊) also to ease our excitement a little, after 3 long hours of waiting we're all assembled. So we started our journey as soon as possible so we will enjoy and spend a long time being there because it's already 11 am and we still have a long way to go.
After 20km from my classmate's house we arrived at Tabwelan Public market, we stopped by to buy food and drinks. We rushed in the market buying things as fast as we can, after a few minutes inside the market
and after we bought the things and the food we needed we continued our journey.
It is another 40km to tuboran and we're limiting our speed at 60-80 kph of course safety first, while driving I'm really wondering what awaits there and i really can't stop thinking about it, I'm picturing it in my mind 🙂 (mybe it's just a feel to much excitement that's why i keep on day dreaming 😅). We passed by many barangay many beautiful spots that tuboran has to offer, of course we don't have time for that yet because our mind is set in blue hole (Maybe next time we will set another road trip in tuboran 😊).
Around 1:45 am we are now entering the barangay that is straight to the blue hole and my heart is filled with excitement and joy as I'm about to witness the place that I dreamed of, and after traveling for a total of 3 hours we've arrived at Blue hole.
As I parked my motorcycle in the parking lot i could see the calm, silent, beautiful and clean natural water, it really gives me a vibe that makes me wanna explore the depths of it.
After parking our motorcycle we all excitedly rent a cottage and prepare our food, because we all agree only to eat our lunch if we arrive.
I was a bit curious when the best time to visit blue hole, and the care taker said that the best time to visit blue hole is during weekends and holiday's, because during that time more people is able to visit blue hole because it it is really satisfying exciting at the same time, because the care taker said that they won't allow anyone to play loud music and create loud noise to keep the calm nature, that's why many tourist would take a risk going to this very far place to enjoy and experience the calming nature.
So after preparing we started eating and because of my excitement I finished my food so fast, afterwards i jump in the cold water 🥶, and it chills deep down in my bones, then suddenly hear a voice shouting (hey that's not fair wait for us we're still eating here). I laughed so hard and didn't listen to them, because i already did my part and nothing else to do ( sounds so selfish🤣). But anyway blue hole is not that big not that small either, brings great experience and enjoyable moment.
Did you know that blue hole is a ritual place back in the days
Yes it is a ritual place according to the locals, Blue hole is about 20 ft deep and 150 meters wide and believed to be a prayer and ritual place by there ancestors, but when the modern era comes blue hole became a tourist spot in Tuboran.
What are the activities we can do in
blue hole?
There are a lot of things you can do in blue hole, you could jump from there 10 ft above the ground, and also you can swing from there 20 ft swing, which is very fun but at first try it might be scary.
Also taking pictures of course that's most people will do in blue hole when they arrive, and also you can practice there a backflip, sideflip, and practice diving, some of you might think why would you make it a practice place there's a lot of beach to do that stuff, here's why blue hole is a natural water and doesn't have that much tension in it so the impact is much lighter compared to the impact of the sea.
So there's a Japanese named Tiyo that we enterview how's his experience in blue hole Philippines, and what are the reasons why he always come back to blue hole.
According to him his experience in blue hole is always satisfying and enjoyable because he said blue hole has his own beauty, and the things he like in blue hole is the calming nature that is really relaxing. and also he said that the people here in Philippines is different and respectful.
So Me myself i could say the same thing as Tiyo it's relaxing calming nature, one day i promise myself I'll be back here.
