| The white sand shoreline of Alubihod Beach. |
After Trappist Monastery, we headed to Alubihod Beach in Nueva Valencia. Travelling to this gorgeous beach via habal is easy because the roads are all concrete. I was welcomed by the courteous staff of Raymen Beach Resort. Settled the entrance fee and walked to the beach area. The shoreline is pretty in its own way. The picturesque is Instagram-worthy because of the rock formation highlighted by the creamy white sand with corals and pebbles. The ambience by the beach is relaxing because the sea breeze is cool.
Location, How to Get to Guimaras: The nearest airport is in Ilo-Ilo City. From the airport, take a cab to Parola Port. What I did, since I stayed in Ong Bun Pension House, I followed the instructions provided by the guard. Just two blocks away, I rode in the jeepney with an ARU/GPU signboard and alighted by the entrance of the port for a minimum fare. Then, bought a ferry ticket bound for Guimaras Wharf. The dock and go of the ferries are continuous every 30 minutes. The travel time is only 15 minutes.
Room Rates, Budget-friendly, Affordable Place to Stay: As mentioned, I stayed in Ilo-Ilo City, but I found a great resort with a great ambience by the beach. It's Raymen Beach Resort.
