Jojo's Christmas Cottage

One of the main attractions in Kalibo in the province of Aklan is the Jojo's Christmas Cottage. Located inside the Sampaguita Gardens, this cottage features Christmas items and other themed collections. 

Kalibo

--> Our itinerary for this trip includes not only Boracay but also the neighboring town and the capital of Aklan, and that's Kalibo. After a short swim and a sumptuous lunch in Boracay Island we left for Kalibo. Travel time from Caticlan to Kalibo takes 2 and half hours including the wait at the port before the van leaves.

How to Get to Mt. Pico de Loro?

There are 2 jump-off points going to Mt. Pico de Loro. One is at Ternate Highway in Cavite and the other one is at Nasugbu in Batangas. The most taken trail is the one in Cavite since it's easier. For us, we did both, going there via Cavite and going back via Batangas.

If you are planning on exploring Mr. Pico de Loro, here's how to get there via Ternate, Cavite. 

Ramboy's Restaurant, Kalibo

 
In every province I've been to, I made it a point to eat in at least one of their local restaurants and try their local food. Food is the best reward you can give yourself after a long and tiring day.

St. John Nepomucene Parish Church

This century old church located at Brgy. Poblacion, Tangalan, Aklan was built through hard and forced labore. It was finished after 28 years of suffering and sacrifices from the people of Tangalan

Our last stop for our day tour is a visit to the Bakhawan (Mangroves) Eco-Park in New Buswang, Kalibo, Aklan. If you want a change of scenery and get closer to nature, pay a visit here.

Afga Wave Rock Formation

Our first stop during our day tour in Kalibo is the AFGA Wave Rock Formation. I've checked the pictures posted in the website to see if it's worth seeing and I thought, why not, we're going to be there anyway.

Jawili Beach

Since our flight going back to Manila is through the Kalibo Airport, we decided on spending a night at Kalibo and explore the hidden jewels of the town.  I've been to Boracay already so I'm not too keen to see it.

Sampaguita Gardens Resort, Aklan

Our first stop in Kalibo is the famous Sampaguita Gardens Resort. Recognized as a major landmark in Travel and Industry in Kalibo. It's one of the investments that helped establish the municipality of New Washington.
