Caramoan

sumisikat na International Tourist destination ang Caramoan, Camarines Sur.  Tinatawag nga itong "Philippines Secret Paradise". 

Ang paradise na ito ay nadiskubre na ng buong mundo.  Ang International versions kasi ng reality show ng Survivor dito na ginawa:
- 2 seasons ng Serbian Survivor
- 2 seasons ng Israel Survivor
- Bulgaria Survivor
- Sweden Survivor nung 2010
- at ang 8th season ng French Survivor

Paano pumunta sa Caramoan?  Eto ang nahanap kong instructions galing sa internet.  (mgvinz.multiply.com/journal/item/1)  - maraming salamat sa kanya para sa detalyadong instructions.  Parang di naman mahirap puntahan.

Because Caramoan is not (yet) a commercialized travel spot, there is no single resort in the area. There are, however, a couple of pension houses and a few homestays in the town center or the Sentro. Good thing I was able to reserve slots in the place of Tita Felly (BC Hometel) before we left Manila, since most homestays in the area were already jam-packed. Prices of homestays start at 150 pesos per head per night, depending on the facilities (e.g. aircon) and haggling skills."

By Bus: "Going to the province of Caramoan, Camarines Sur is, as easy as 123, There are daily bus companies bound to Camarines Sur or Bicol Region, almost all of them start their operations by 5PM to 11PM daily for Cubao and Pasay Bus terminals. Bus companies like Isarog, Peñafrancia, Raymond and Philtranco in Cubao Terminal offers trips bound to Naga.

I suggest you book 1 week in advance just to make sure you get a good seat, Travel time will take exactly 8 hours from Cubao terminal to Naga City Central Bus Terminal. There are seating options for buses the 4 seats per row or common aircondition buses PHP 500-550, 3 seats per row or LAZY BOY Seats (700-750) the Lazy boy with onboard restroom is PHP900 and the Captain Seats or single seats are 550-600.

From Naga City Central Bus Terminal there are Jeepneys (fare is 50 Pesos) and airconditioned VANS (Fare 75 pesos ) Bound to Sabang Pier trips are 4AM and 7AM ONLY, in case you were left behind by missing the schedule, you will need to take an ordinary (NONE AIRCONDITIONED) bus JC Liner bound to LAGONOY, just tel the conductor to drop you off the town of GOA to the jeepney terminal bound to Sabang Pier ( Bus Fare is 40 Pesos) trevel time from NAGA CITY to GOA via JC Liner Bus is 2 Hours. make sure you have your MP3 player with, never the less the scenic view will be an alternate way of entertainment, seeing MT. Isarog from afar.

From GOA Jeepney Terminal take a jeep bound to Sabang Pier, fare is 15 pesos per person ride will take 15-20 minutes.

Once your in Sabang Pier look for the Motorized Banca bound to GUIJALO PIER CARAMOAN, fare is 120 pesos per person, trips starts at 7AM, 9AM, 11AM and 2PM ONLY!! make sure you dont miss this time or you will need to charter your own boat for 2,000-2,500 pesos. Boat ride will take 2 hours. If you have sea sickness take your meds, during the ride the waves will be pounding the boat so be ready to get wet.

From GUIJALO PIER take a tricycle to drop you off in Centro (Central Town) or to your place of stay in Caramoan fare is 15 Pesos per person Trike ride will be 10-15 minutes, tricycles in Caramoan are heavy loaders they can carry up to 10 person per trip.

In case you have your own vehicle to bring make sure its a 4WD as of this writing there is no pavement road going directly to Caramoan which make it a secluded town, I've heard the rocky road to take is from the town Presentacion.
