Binurong Point is an open and wide area with a panoramic view of the Pacific, gorgeous rolling hills and a spectacular view of the sunset. Why you should include this place on your must-visit list in Bicol? Why not, it has a cool and relaxing ambiance with a cool sea breeze, the slopes of the hills were perfectly shaped by nature, there are gigantic rock formations, and the calming sound of the waves can make your day a lazy day. This area is definitely a perfect spot for photo shoots, especially those pre-nups, because it is so romantic.
