VISITING BALER
2 DAYS 1 NIGHT TOUR PACKAGE

Someone in the room says the word "Baler" and you would probably conjure an image of surfers on board
crushing waves. And no one can fault you for associating the place to the sport as it has long been known as the
birthplace of surfing in the Philippines. Situated in the coastal province of Aurora, this town faces the Pacific
ocean which offers waves that will make all water babies happy. But if you want to go beyond the stereotypical
sunworshipping, fret not as it has tons of hiking, historical and gastronomical features that can be enjoyed, even
if you're not in your bikini. Perhaps you want to chase waterfalls? Or maybe you'd like to explore the town on
foot or a bike and see the sleepy inland farms and its public markets. Museums more your thing? Or maybe you
want to meet the lady who makes the (arguably) best peanut butter in the country? Plenty of options, huh? It is
a place that will charm you from the get-go and will definitely make you coming back for more. You know
what's better that Netflix and chill? It's Baler and thrill!.

BALER: ACTIVITY FLOW

Your two day vacation will start with a private van pick-up at 1AM. Travel time is around five hours,
including bio-breaks. First stop will be around 6AM at the Millennium tree located at Balete Park in Maria
Aurora, Aurora. Prepare to pick-up your jaws upon seeing this grand balete tree because its sheer size is
enormous. It is said that it takes around sixty people to encircle its 600-year old trunk. It's so huge, people go
in and out of it. Once inside, you could easily put 10-15 adults. Feel free to also go and climb up the branches.
After exploring the place, you can have a breakfast stop (meals on your account) before heading to Ermita hill.
This hill is a reminder that living along the coast has its own set of perils. Legend has it that a huge storm in
the area cause a tromba marina (tornadic water spouts form over water or move from land to water) and it
ravaged Baler. The few families who survived the disaster did so only by heading towards the top of Ermita
Hill. You can climb this hill to have a panoramic view of the Bay. Not too far from is Diguisit falls. You will
have a short walk to reach it. We recommend that you bring or wear your swimsuit as the water may prove to
be too hard to resist. Make sure that you're wearing a good pair of sandals/shoes as the rocks are slick. Next up
is Lukso-lukso islets. There are three islets (rock formations, really) which you can, figuratively, hop around
(lukso means hop in Tagalog). The view here is fantastic, perfect for panoramic shots. Not really suitable for
beach running as the coast is rocky. Next on the agenda is a visit to Museum. It's the perfect place to learn of
the history of this place. Couple that with Aurora mansion, then you will have a better understanding of the
psyche of its locals. After having your fill on local history, you will proceed to Ditumabo water falls (aka
Mother falls, became popular because of the movie Apocalypse Now). Prepare yourself for a 20-30 minute
trek on slippery rocks. We won't stop you if you want to jump in right away and enjoy the cold and refreshing
waters from the mountain. After swimming, you will now go to your accommodation to check-in. We will
leave the rest of the day to you - free time! The following day will be physically demanding so make sure that
you get a hearty breakfast. After eating, we now go to the main event - surfing! Don't worry if you don't know
how to swim as you will have your lessons on the shallow part of the beach. Of course, if your swim skills are
on point then your confidence will definitely get a boost. The lesson is around an hour long. It sounds short but
believe us, you will feel all sorts of body soreness the following day. Good vibes! If you opt not to get surf
lessons (why, though?) you can entertain yourself by taking photos of your friends falling, er, popping from
their surfboards. Blue crush, for the win! Your van will pick you up from the hotel at 11AM so make sure you
are checked out and ready to go. Before leaving the area, we suggest that you already take your lunch so you
can just sleep on the return trip for Manila..

Where to eat?
Simplicity is the name of the culinary game here. Whether it's meat or seafood, you can't go wrong with the
eateries outlined below. Did we mention that the price point is pocket-friendly? You know what that means -
more yummy in your belly.
Baler Surfer Grill. Easily spotted because of the outlandish VW beetle that has its engine compartment
converted as a grilling station. Yes, you heard it right. Car grillin' for your char-grilled chows. Must-not-miss
is their Bulalo BBQ. Come early as this place is extremely popular and you don't want to arrive there only to
find out that food has run out. Location: Buton St.
Gerry Shan's Place. This is where you go when you need to fix your hanger (hunger/anger) stat. Cheap, buffet
for lunch and dinner. No frills, simple menu of familiar dishes. Enough said. Location: Quezon Street,
Barangay 2
Kusina Luntian. If you are a fan of Binalot-style meals (rice meals with your choice of protein, all wrapped in
banana leaves), then this place is for you. Post-surf, this is the best place to fill that tummy. Or if you want to
pack your meals for the waterfalls, then get your meals here and have a picnic at your next location. Location:
Alley 1, Dela Rosa Street
Yellow Fin Bar and Grill. If your idea of winding down an action-packed day is to share grilled food and
booze with your friends, then you may want to try Yellow Fin Bar and Grill. This place is very popular, getting
a seat may be a challenge. Go here BEFORE you are hungry as the wait can test the patience of a saint. Must-
try: grilled yellow fin, grilled liempo washed down with local beers Location: Sabang beach
Thelma's Kitchenette. Good for big groups. Apart from the usual suspects, they also serve other dishes not
found on other popular local restaurants like ginataang alimango (crabs cooked in coconut cream) and fried
frogs. One of the better eateries to serve ensaladang pakô (fiddle fern salad). They also serve halu-halo.
