Here’s the continuation of my Zamboanga del Norte Escapo...
After more or less two hours visit and photowalk in Rizal Shrine, we then proceed to our main destination for the day- the infamous Dakak Beach Resort! The famed beach resort is less than 30 minutes (travel time) from the Rizal Shrine. We paid the 500 pesos (per person) entrance fee -day tour fee ba tawag dun? Good to know that the payment includes complementary “one meal of your choice” in Il Patio - an Italian Restaurant located in the place. No more words to say I was really amazed by the beauty and elegance of the whole place. Since it’s around 1:00 pm, we then decided to avail the complementary meal before exploring the place, "swim", and do my "as usual" photowalk!

I don't need to make this post long!
Sino ba naman hindi pamilyar sa Dakak? 1990's TV ad in Eat Bulaga (grade 2 or 3 ba ako nun-taz nakikipanood lang hehehe) makes me dream of going to this paradise cove in
Zamboanga del Norte.
Known for its amazing shaped bay and powdery sand, the beauty of Dakak is no longer a secret.Visiting Dakak is an awesome experience. Since I was young I have dreamt of exploring and travelling the world.
Traveling the globe will always be in my list. I would like to try Steve Wong's experiences in traveling including, waiting for your luggage to be checked within 2 hours in Australia! Kidding aside, I still need to explore our 7107 islands first and after that I will enjoy other countries beautiful places:)
