#celebratewithtrip From the town proper of Dingalan, Aurora, it is about 10 mins away by car to Pascual Beach Resort at Butas na Bato. I liked this place because I took the big house to accomodate the 10 of us which is really value for money for only 6500 php. It has a big kitchen, spacious and clean receiving area, enough restrooms inside the house and outside the house. The beach house is just few steps away to the beach. It was a good overnight stay, with videoke and games together. Truly, It is unforgettable.#mytripvlog #mountainview#tripblazers#sea View#seascape#beach

Sharing my weekend getaway at Dipaculao, Aurora :) Total Expense: Php 2,000 each (2 pax). Itinerary: 6 am: cubao genesis bus going to aurora 3 pm: eta maria aurora, aurora. Haggle a habal habal going to Halos Farm and Resort (near ampere beach). There are resorts in dipaculao (locals known as dinadiawan beach) but I recommend staying in Halos Farm and Resort. There are treehouses and aircon rooms. Very cold sa treehouse tho fan room lang. They have pools also. My favorite is the infinity pool as shown in the picture :) If commute, best to ask the habal habal (tricycle) na sunduin kayo sa resort since mahirap ang byahe. 7 am: etd bound to dipaculao (dinadiawan) beach. We stayed at La Sunshine Beach Resort. If you want to go in summer, best to book by January palang as per Ate Myrna since fully booked na sila ng January but best to go pag off-peak kasi you can haggle the cottages and room. I do not know the cottage fee since we use it for free :D but the air con rooms ranging from 5k to 8k but you can haggle ng mga 3k pag off season. Tips: 1. Genesis bus bound to Cubao last trip is 11 am. If naiwan kayo, you can take a bus to Cabanatuan then Cabanatuan to Cubao. 2. There are van waiting near Genesis terminal (650/pax) going to Cubao 3. Food is not abundant so best to bring ur own food Expenses: Genesis bus from Cubao bound to Aurora - 495 Habal Habal - 800 all in :D from aurora going to halos farm to dinadiawan to genesis terminal lol Accomodation- 800 (treehouse) Beach (entrance) - 150 (cottage is for free since kame lang tao that day) Hope this helps! Happy travel! :) #staycation #beachlife #staycation #campingglamping #foodie #urbanexplorer #naturalwonders

Wake up to unforgettable sea views and sunrise magic in Dingalan, Aurora! 🌅🌊 This coastal retreat spoils you with wild waves, mountain thrills, and stunning photo stops—perfect for unwinding as you eat breakfast with the ocean as your backdrop. Start your day at Dingalan Mountain View—get there early for a sunrise picnic while the mist rolls over endless sea and hills (bring your favorite brew and snacks)! Next, hike down to Dingalan Aurora Grotto (9CGH+J8G Mountain View)—a serene spot for quiet reflection and a quick snap with the dramatic cliffside behind you. For jaw-dropping panoramas, swing by Dingalan - Baler Road View Point (9CHG+PC4), especially just after sunrise. The light is perfect for "I was here" photos and sweeping landscape shots. Head to Matawe Bay Ocean Front Resort (89FC+MF9) next; it’s ideal for a late breakfast on the shore or a swim (pack reef-safe sunscreen and slip-proof sandals!). Don’t miss the quirky insta-sign at ‘I LOVE MATAWE’ (89VH+236)—it’s great for playful pics with friends or solo travelers. Pro tips: Arrive early to dodge crowds and catch the best light. Always check the weather (it can get foggy fast) and pack light, water-resistant gear, especially if you’re hiking or exploring sea-side cliffs. Stay alert on rocky paths and mind those ocean breezes during breakfast! #Aurora #Dingalan #SunriseViews #OceanAdventure #TravelPhilippines

#summervacay A weekend getaway to Dingalan, Aurora is such a memorable experience. We started on the trail at dawn and when the sunrise hits the verdant hills, it gives the picturesque view their hues. Then we reached Dingalan Mountain View, where the dramatic overlooking cliffs take our breath away. The viewpoint, where we see the azure blue sea waves crash against the beaches and the rocks gives a surreal feeling. Going to the feeder port, we can see numerous colorful boats moored and people busy going about their daily lives. Certainly an experience to remember!

It’s not yet crowded. better visit now ☺️ I love the experience of beach camping here..

#springitinerary We went to Dingalan View Deck in Aurora and saw a beautiful view. From the top, we could see the big blue sea and green mountains. The wind was cool, and the place was quiet. It felt peaceful and nice. At the top, the view was amazing. We saw the sea meeting the sky and the waves hitting the rocks below. It was a great place to take pictures and relax. If you visit Dingalan, try to go to the view deck. It's a simple hike with a big reward at the top. We really liked it and hope to go back again. #philippines #jammerstheexplorer

My girlfriend recommended going to this place up in the mountains in the Philippines. I was like why not?? It's cheap and the pictures look amazing! It was a long drive but totally worth it! The views are so beautiful, I couldn't believe my eyes! Cielo Alto has nice little cabins, but we stayed at the VIP rooms which are nice too! I would definitely go up there again! #freehotelstay
