I wanted to try something new for this year so I bought a Backpack for the purpose of hiking. I'm enticed to try hiking because of stunning photos of mountain adventures I saw in my Facebook newsfeed. In other words, "naiinggit ako" hahaha.
As a preparation, I need to complete my checklist first. I need a bag suitable for hiking. As I look for a good hiking bag, I found this item with super-describe name from Lazada. It's called "Sport Outdoor Military Rucksacks Tactical Molle Backpack Camping Hiking Trekking Bag". That sounds a multi-purpose bag. I specifically choose the Digital Desert variant but I received a wrong plain Khaki color variant. Many times already Lazada messed up but nothing critical that will make my head explode. Anyway, I didn't waste my time to return it to Lazada because I like the color too :)
It was perfectly sealed aside to the bubble wrap.
I found no issues upon inspection. It just great. I like it!
.
It's also a good timing that my cousin invited me to go with her at Camaya Coast for a day tour. It's a good opportunity to try out my new bag and of course, to relax for a while.
So last February 04, 2017, we tour at Camaya Coast. We took the ferry ride from Esplanade Seaside Terminal (near SM Mall of Asia) to Camaya Coast for approximate of 2 hours of travel.
Upon your arrival to the Camaya Coast, you'll be welcomed by Beach Dancers as seen above. Feels like your a VIP :)
We didn't check-in to their Hotel because we're only staying for just a day. Here's what worth it per Adult:
- 499.00 pesos - (incl. access to infinity pool and beach, free use of beach huts, bench and rattan lounges)
- 249.00 pesos - 1x meal (3 pcs. lumpia rolls, 1 pc. chicken, 1 cup of rice, 1 scoop of pancit canton)
Sorry if i missed taking photos of the food, I was so hungry during that time haha
The food is delicious. It's like lutong Max's Fried Chicken.
Note: cost of day tour and overnight stay may vary, visit http://www.camayacoast.com for electronic booking and quote.
There are several known establishments already in this resort like Giordano, BigChill, Figaro and a restaurant affiliated with Max's Chicken. I can say, the resort is in halfway developing. The electronic pass is not yet operational and some digital vending machines are not working too.
Lifeguard vest is very accessible and they have visible Lifeguards on stand-by. You'll feel very safe while enjoying the beach.
The beach sand is very natural. The greenish clear seawater is very clean unlike other beaches in the Philippines where you may see some unknown articles floating in the water...
What I like most in the resort is their Infinity Pool. It's free of Chlorine.
At end of the day, this bag proves to be strong and is going to be my longtime partner.
If you'd like to buy the similar backpack i used in this particular travel, buy it below:

Featured Ad: Valentine's day is coming, visit Lazada for lovely deals!
That Assault pack is not just for assaulting I guess, haha. I have always wanted to be going to places with just a backpack. I hope lazada will give more discount on this in the future.
ReplyDeleteThe backpack looks cool! Looks pretty strong that can takeup a bit of assault! I've been on a few backpacking trips and I know how helpful it is!
ReplyDeleteThe backpack looks compact and looks durable. Camaya Coast is really scenic.
ReplyDeleteWow. Camaya Coast is much more developed now compared to when I went there. Back then, there weren`t much to explore but the beach and the very abundant forest. I agree, the water in the beach was really clean though there were very small fishes that can tickle the legs.

Looks like it might be able to endure my husband's commute! I've bought a couple of men's bags from Lazada for Christmas last year. The recipients were very pleased. :)
ReplyDeleteThat backpack of urs look pretty sturdy and I guess it is gonna accompany you now in many many trips to come! The infinity pool looks stunning and thanks for the cost break up!
