Hey ka wanderers! It's Marinel again, (minelwanders20) back again with another travel blog. I want to share with you something beautiful in the City of the South. One of the nicest beaches that you can go to - Blue Coral in Moalboal. This is the place people always visit and keep coming back specially Cebuano people. The scenic view, pearl white sand and the crystal clear water is some of the reasons that people always go back here. And we've been here also for fourth times already and just the same with everybody else, we always look forward to be here again.
As soon as we arrived at the resort, we immediately took a rest since we were feeling a little bit dizzy and nausea because of the long travel. It took us almost three hours of travelling before we got here. The moment we arrived, we couldn't help but lie down on the sand right away. Our back were sore from sitting in the car for so long. We also felt the intense heat of the sun since we arrived at noon. It was aching, and the heat seemed to sooth into our skin, making it almost unbearable.
The heat welcomed us with open arms—it feels like it was angry, and the burning sun made everything feel hotter. Our skin could feel the burn, and the humidity added to the discomfort.
After about thirty minutes of rest, I decided it was time to explore. I quickly changed into my swimming attire, ready to feel the beauty of the place. With my camera in hand, I wandered around, searching for an instagramable view. And then, tadaaahhhh! I stumbled upon a stunning area that looked too good to pass up. Excited, I called my cousin to snap a few photos. It was the perfect start to our adventure.
While the adults busy preparing food for our lunch, and others are roaming around checking the place, the children are also busy swimming and feeling the beauty of the ocean. They are not bothered by the heat of the sun. They even catch starfish while they were swimming. They immediately showed us what they saw and for a remembrance, I took a picture abruptly. (Plus - the starfish is so cute too. 😜)
After resting and taking pictures, everyone went back to swimming. Later, the adults joined in after preparing the food, seeking to cool off from the midday heat and the added warmth from grilling. While swimming, someone spotted a sea urchin and quickly brought it to the surface to show us. It was fascinating to see up close, with it's sharp spikes making it look both intriguing and intimidating. To my surprise, they decided to eat it. I got curious and tried it too. And to my delight, it was delicious! Although, I'd seen a lot of sea urchins before, it was my first time tasting it.
After we finished lunch, my husband was scrolling through my phone and came across the pictures I had taken earlier. He got a bit envious and decided he wanted his own photos at the same spot. I accompanied him to the area, but when we arrived, he noticed an even better spot up higher. Without hesitation, he climbed a massive rock, as if he was reaching for the sky. The view from up there was incredible, and the effect on his photo was breathtaking. I loved how it turned out—it felt like he was touching the clouds!
Since my husband was so happy with his photos, I got a bit envious too and decided to try climbing the rock myself. I asked him for help, and we called over our cousin to take a picture. As we made our way up, we both looked a bit funny, teetering to the side, almost like we were about to tumble! Hahaha! But it’s all good—it was totally understandable since the one taking the photo was still a kid, and we were giving them a bit of a challenge. Still, the result was worth the effort!
"Every journey brings not just new memories, but moments that make you laugh, learn, and love life even more."
And the rest is history. We are just enjoying ourselves swimming and talking.
That's it for this travel blog. Thank you for reading, and I hope that you are all entertained. Till next time, Ciao! 😘
