The second leg of my Bicol Express trip is The province of Catanduanes, An island on the eastern seaboard of the Philippines. Its rugged coast slammed the the harsh waves of the Pacific Ocean. The island is sometimes dubbed as Batanes of Catanduanes, because of its similar features to Batanes group of islands in the Northernmost tip of the Philippines. It is also called as the Irish coast of the Philippines because of its rock cliffs that meets the ocean. Of particular interest to me is Binurong Point, in Baras, Catanduanes. Its a 30-minute hike for experienced hikers and may take a little longer depending on your physical condition. In general, its an easy trail without steep inclines. The best time to go up is at 4:30am at dawn to catch the sunrise while at the Point. This activity is for hikers, nature lovers and for those who are curious to try hiking/trekking. This will leave you feeling good and asking for more. So go on to the next hike which is more challenging, the Bote Lighthouse.mits about 2-3 hours hike. On the way to Baras from Virac, you will pass by a beautiful old church, calle Bato Church. Its made of stone without steel and concrete. You can fly from Manila straight to Virac or you can take a bus. The bus will be loaded to a ferry upon reaching the port of Tabaco, Albay and will dock at the port of San Andres or in Virac, Catanduanes. If you have more time, you can soend a day or 2 in Legazpi. If you have more time, you can also go to the Province of Sorsogon. Bus fare from Manila to Virac is from PHP 875-1300 depending on the bus line of your choice and the amenities. Ferry fare is separate. There is PHP 20 environmental fee at Binurong Point.

On another day we went to the lignon hills me and my wife together with her two nieces and nephew and drove our car to the top of the hills after paying 25 pecos for the nieces and nephew and only 10 pecos for me and my wife since we are local residents of Daraga Albay. When we reached the top we could see the lovely view of the whole city and the Mayon Volcano and took several nice pictures and enjoyed the lovely weather and beautiful seen from the top of the hills. We also rested and the restaurants there. Again, me and my wife were very happy that we managed to entertain the two nieces and nephew who came specially from Manila and Mindanao to attend the 18th birthday debut of our daughter in 2nd March 2020. We promised to come back again with a bigger family group.

The whole mountain is of copper that make it blue but in time pines with soil grew covering the blue color. If you happen to come here, please preserve the place. Follow your guide - where you can take pictures and where one is not allowed to go.
