Basco Lighthouse and Naidi Hill in Basco, Batan Island, Batanes

After our visit from Vayang Rolling Hills our van went to the top of Naidi Hill where the Basco Lighthouse is located.

Basco Lighthouse was constructed on March 2003 to help on the navigation for local fisherman and ships and a the same time for tourists to visit.

By the way, this tour was the Batan Island Tour by Wakay  Tours where we get to appreciate lots of places in Batan Island.

Here is what happened during our visit to the lighthouse.

11:51 AM We arrived at Basco Lighthouse

6 minutes travel time by van from Vayang Rolling Hills.

It was still drizzling when we arrived at Basco Lighthouse but that did not stop us from visiting. In Batanes where there is a drizzle there is wind and it was fun and challenging, especially when you can’t stabilize your camera when holding it up in the air.

Here is a photo of a sign which tells the history of Basco Lighthouse.

There’s a wide area with benches where you can sit and look at the lighthouse or Batanes Bay.

Vayang Rolling Hills in Bsaco, Batan Island, Batanes

We were all sleepy after breakfast since we all had to lack sleep due to our early morning flight from Manila to Batanes, we all first went inside our rooms and took a nap for the long day ahead. We had a lot on our schedule for that day and the first place we will be visiting would be Vayang Rolling Hills.

11:12 AM We were picked-up by a Van going to Vayang Rolling Hills

Approximately, around 1 hour 30 minutes of sleep, which I was very happy to do.

Weather in town was drizzling with a bit of wind. According to our guide it was the normal weather in Batanes on winter season (we visited on December 2017).

We passed by the Capitol of Batanes and some churches then slowly the building became sceneries of green grassland. Most of the trip was uphill with great views.

The picture above does not show it but it was drizzling.
