Centennial Park in Iligan City, Philippines

Centennial Park

Centennial Park was not on our itinerary on the day that we visited Dodiongan Falls, but since we were at the highway already at 3:23PM the group (Alex and Lisa Marie) decided that we should visit Centennial Park and wait for the sunset there.

3:26 PM – We rode a Dalipuga bound and told the driver that we were going down at the Centennial Park. We paid the fare of 11 Pesos/person.

There were stores along the road so we decided to have a snack first before entering the park. This was also where I removed my wet shoes and changed to my slippers.

It was around 4PM when Lai of PinayTravelista.com and I arrived in El Nido, Palawan from our short visit to Taytay, Palawan. While resting, I called Jherson of LonelyTravelogue.com, another Pinoy Travel Blogger (PTB) who was traveling in El Nido, for us to meet him.

I told him that we were headed for Maremegmeg Beach and if he has time we would want him to join us. Luckily, he told us that they, along with his new found friends during his island hopping tour, will also be visiting Maremegmeg Beach. Woohoo!

Sunset at Corong-Corong Beach in El Nido, Palawan

I arrived at around 5:24PM at the market terminal of El Nido, Palawan. I called Paula and asked where they were, she said that they were waiting for the sunset at Corong-Corong Beach. I said that I would follow them even though I still do not know where it was. My main concern was first to drop off my stuff at our lodge, so when Paula said that it was near the terminal I never thought of going there immediately.

I rode the tricycle going to the town proper of El Nido, Palawan. Quickly located our lodge then dropped my stuff first, and rode a tricycle to Corong-Corong Beach.

I was not here to see the usual beauty of Manila Bay sunset nor did I take a half-day leave from work just to see it. I’m here for something unusual, something that does not happen everyday, something that no man has
