BBQ at Union Beach

Submitted by Simone on Mon, 07/22/2013 - 14:00

You have reached your destination!  After a long beach walk we suddenly catch the first kite school like an oasis in the desert. They are placed between shady palmtrees close to the shore made out of bamboo and palmleaves. The lovley garden invites to chill out and a huge green field offers space for resting and avoids any sand in your kite gear. Slightly exhausted and thirsty we can't wait to get the first St. Miguel beer and we launch into the small bar.

Good Morning Camiguin! On some low windy days kite-and windsurfers from Funboard Center Boracay headed down to the south of the Philiipines to explorer new kite-and windsurfing spots. After a 10 hours boat-trip from Cebu City to Camiguin they arrived in the early morning at the sleepy Island. The peaks of the 7 vulcanos looking quite unreal through the clouds. Not many people know that Camiguin is a hot plate with the highest concentration of burning mountains in the small island.
