going to pagudpud - HELP!!

[sweet_sentiments]

my friends and i are planning to visit pagudpud this coming nov12-15 for the long weekend...........
can you help us decide on which resort to stay?

we're thinking of either pannzian or terra rika...... are these places good? can you suggest a resort? we're just l oo king
for a place where we can camp out because we can't afford pagudpud's cottages.......

is there a resort at maira-ira that offers cheap accomodation?

also please suggest a place for touring and how to get to those places...... i have contacted pannzian resort
and they quoted us 275 each if 4 persons will be joining and the service would take us to the ff:

-yodic
-mabaga falls
-kabigan falls
-maira-ira
-pagudpud bayan

is this a good deal?

we'll be in pagudpud for only 1 1/2 days....

thanks in advance!

I think the going rate is around that much.
Good luck and have fun!

[Anakin Skywalker]

If you just want to camp out, can't you bring your own tents?

P275/person? I think that's expensive, but if you are going in a limo, that's cheap. Sure you can find cheaper rates. Good luck.

[sweet_sentiments]

can i go to these places just by tricycle from saud beach:

-yodic
-mabaga falls
-kabigan falls
-maira-ira
-pagudpud bayan

pede bang mag-walk in sa saud resorts at this time of the month?

do you know polaris resort at saud? penge naman contact number....

thanks ng marami!

[sweet_sentiments]

hassle kasi magbitbit ng tent e.....lalo na pag mahaba byahe.... ayun......

[sweet_sentiments]

if i stay at pannzian resort would it be easy to go to pagudpud's tourist spots by tricycle....... do tricycles frequent that area?

how about if i stay in the saud area? do tricycles frequent that area too?

[BenLopez]

Yes.
There has got to be some kind of transportation.

i'm TOO late to reply. sowee.

I wonder bakit saksakan ng mahal ang accomodation sa Pagudpud...

[mrnoel]

I wonder bakit saksakan ng mahal ang accomodation sa Pagudpud...


Mostly kasi ang pera ng pumupunta sa pagudpud ay $$$ :lol:

[BeefPapaitan]

Hahaha, sayang you have to pay a steep price for that slice of paradise.

Dibale, mayaman ka naman, diba, noel?

[BB-M]

I wonder bakit saksakan ng mahal ang accomodation sa Pagudpud... It's a "Dog Eat Dog World" we live in, Beef.
We missed you, man! :)

[BeefPapaitan]

Busy kasi sa studies. Mga pasaway subjects ko... :(

Dog Eat Dog? Ya...we always revolve around that kind of world. :p

Sana mas malaki yung mga iba. Pwede bang i-enlarge du'n? Di ko yata nakita yung enlarge button e.

[zachzech]

[sweet_sentiments]

hi juvan,


if you really want to know you might want to revisit this thread:

http://www.ilocosnorte-online.com/inside/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=399

in that thread i mentioned something about having a group but they can't make up their minds so i'm thinking of a plan B ......... super gusto ko kasing makarating ng pagudpud and i don't want to ruin my plan of going there just because i have no one with me, therefore the Plan B.....

you can also try and read the first page of this thread.......

i hope i answered your question....


:)

hi zachzech!

do you happen to mean manang yolly? wala na ung hut nila by blue lagoon pinaalis na raw nung may-ari....... but we did saw a house pero outside the sands of blue lagoon na, but accdg to one local dun ang mahal daw nila maningil ng presyo ng food dun sa house na un kaya nagbaon lang kame.....

[webmx04]

hi im new here and it seems medyo na stop na tong thread well just wanna ask talaga bang malakas ang alon dito kasi we went there last summer ehh and the waves where kinda r18 di pwede sa kids sabi ng iba mas maganda daw yun blue lagoon mas calm is this true any suggestion bukas na alis namin hope someone can reply agad thanks

http://bb.1asphost.com/resplendence99/scan1.jpg kita niyo yun may circle ulo ng tao yun inde buko see the people running kala nila kasi tsunami eh di joke lang eto pa isa

http://bb.1asphost.com/resplendence99/scan2.jpg nice rock formation eto nag enganyo sa kin bumalik sa pagudpod the beauty of this plus mahilig rin ako sa photography hehe hope someone can reply agad thanks

[zachzech]

sweet sentiments...geez im sorry if ala na pala yung hut...the last time i went there, my students and i stayed for 4 days and well we camped out in ther grounds and they let us use their stove and everything and we just paid them some money for the use....sometimes though when we caught something and ask them to cook it, ok naman... well siguro kasi kaibigan sila ng boss ko....

webmx04...if you have children with you, i think it would be better to bring them to blue lagoon...great snorkeling place....and diving too...if you go to the other parts, i suggest you check the tide first.... plus when you go there, please do us all a favor and tell those who collect white sand to refrain bringing white sands home...that is if there are still a lot who do that....enjoy!!!

[BeefPapaitan]

Ba, parang nadami ang mga tao sa Pagudpud ngayon, a?!!

[BeefPapaitan]

Nice picz, sweet...

[webmx04]

hi thanks for the reply but can can you do me a favor and give me a guide on how to go to blue lagoon and I heard wala daw resort dun san kami magpapalit?!?! we plan to go there talaga nadala kasi bro sa saud eh dahil sa lakas ng alon!!! from the main road diba may makikita kami bill board telling us go left to saud beach resort and other resorts from manila kami manga galing. so diretso pa kami papunta sa way ng cagayan right any land marks you know that would tell us malapit na kami?!?! and how long would it take from saud going to blue lagoon habol namin talaga snorkling can you give me suggestion sa pwedeng mapagsnorklingan sabi sa akin ni me an from maira ira we will need a bangka ride P500 from the shores of saud to go to the island na pwede magsnorkling I didn`t know meron din pala sa blue lagoon.... shallow waters lang ba yun sa blue lagoon para kahit la ng life vest ok na>!?!?! and maganda ba?!?!?! malapit ba sa shore ?!?!

and do you know curimao coral garden talaga ang maraming corals dun for snorkling?!?!

excited na me alis kami today I guess mamayang gabi !!!! I hope may makatulong sa kin and mabasa ko pa reply niyo hehehe thanks talaga guys

[zachzech]

good snorkeling place sa blue lagoon..if you bring kids for safety reasons better get them life vests...ala resorts dun so you would have to stay somewhere....dun sa island na sinasabi, you can snorkel na kahit sa blue lagoon mismo...shallow? hmmm its shallow enough and yet deep enough too. diretso papunta ng cagayan...pag narating nyo yung parang small market but not a market hehehhe im muddling this im sorry...basta pag narating nyo yung may mga nagbebenta ng fishes at may restaurant sa tapat ...medyo nalampasan nyo na...backtrack a little....if i remember right there is this board that says maira ira (m just not sure if it is still there)...along the way you will see this maliit na road going to the left and at the right of that road is a small hospital---a community clinic...if in doubt just ask...im sorry i forgot the barangay but they should know blue lagoon.... dont worry about palitan meron dun....ala alng place to stay overnight....enjoy!!!!

i hope this helped

[daguerrson]

Snorkeling in Currimao? Yes of course. There's plenty of coral reefs right at the shorefront of the town proper. There is a concrete docking platform for bancas and other flat-bottomed vessels, you can use that as your 'station' although it has no roof or shade from the blazing sun. You can go to Nipa Beach Resort or D' Corals Beach Resort for accomodations. While in Currimao, you can also explore the Pangil shorefront which is just as great. Do you have fishing gears such as tackles or "pana"?

Long time no hear sweet_sentiments. Thanks for sharing those very great pictures of Ilocos (Pagudpud, in particular). They are great, and makes me want to go and visit the place.

Did you go other places like Currimao, Laoag, or Paoay. Thanks again for sharing and see you around INOL.
