Who ever said Anawangin Cove is one of a kind? Well, it is! But Nagsasa Cove is most definitely in the same league! Just 20 minutes further down from Anawangin Cove, Nagsasa is one amazing beach! Just like Anawangin, it's perfect for camping and it doesn't get too many visitors. It's a beach that was created by the Mt. Pinatubo eruption when volcanic material found its way to Nagsasa.At the same time, Nagsasa Cove is home to an Ayta community which relocated there. There are about four picnic tables but that's just about it. You might want to opt to share a meal with the Ayta community and request them to fish dinner for you.
It's the same jump-off point as Anawangin in Pundaquit, San Antonio, Zambales. Just tell the boatman to bring you to Nagsasa Cove.Thanks to Ryan Guzman for the photos. He's organizing a group camping tour to Nagsasa from February 21 to 22. You can text him at (0928) 9067151 for details.
Here's information on Anawangin Cove and Capones Island. The jump-off point for all these wonderful places is in Pundaquit Beach.
Part 1: Hiking up Mt. Anawangin and down to the beach
Part 2: Anawangin Cove in San Antonio, Zambales
Part 3: Capones Island and its lighthouse
San Pablo's Seven Lakes tour
Here's another tour on February 21, an adventure day tour of the Seven Lakes of San Pablo, Laguna. Maximum of 14 participants. The PHP1,600 tour fee covers transportation and toll expenses, entrance fees, a lakeside lunch beside Sampaloc Lake, and some local delicacies as pasalubong. E-mail info@pinoymountaineer.com to book.

to IVAN : my friends and I are planning to visit Anawangin come October, this year. Is the place safe for the locals and not locals of the place, as well as for the foreigners? Would you know of anybody as well who can arrange a package trip for us? We're all from Manila. Thanks so much in advance. and BTW, I LOVE Reading your blogs. It made me think of travel more and explore the Philippines :)
hi, Ivan! I haven't been to a beach as serene as Nagsasa. Something so beautiful is nice to be kept a secret but you just can't help but tell everyone you know how awesome this place is :)
I went with Ryan's group last year and going back next month. This is his current number: 0908-5030053
Thanks for this Ivan. Dito ko rin nalaman yung Anawangin.
Just got back from our Nagsasa Cove trip. Ito yung sinasabi sa amin noon ng tricycle driver namin na mas maganda pero mas malayo kaya pinuntahan ko na ngayo bago pa sya ma exploit like Anawangin. Our boatman is Mang Boy. he's very nice and accommodating kahit medyo makulit kami coz araw araw check namin yung lagay ng dagat :D eto po number nya if you wish to get his service. Tulong na lang namin sa kanya to. 09297170729 & 09165254052
Thanks!
