“THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE THAT I HAVE BEEN TO!” I screamed my lungs out, hoping that she would hear me even when I was at the highest point of a giant rock and she at the very bottom of it.

“SAME HERE!” she yelled back.

That was no exaggeration. Biri Island is the most gorgeous place that I have been to so far. I stood there and tried to take in all the beauty and wonder that surrounded me but even my elephantine head could not contain it all.

BIRI ROCK FORMATIONS

Awe-inspiring, marvellous, magnificent…just  a few adjectives one can describe the Rock Formations in Biri island.

For me, Biri Island is the most interesting town in  Northern Samar. It is known for its splendid rock formations carved thru time due to ferocious waves of the San Bernardino Strait that lap up the eastern portion of its shore.

 I have never seen a beautiful rock formation such as this before.The picturesque Biri  Rock Formation is composed of seven gigantic limestone rocks, showcasing itself as an awe-inspiring natural wonder with unique carved forms.The Biri Rock Formation has been depicted as a consequence of the “battle of the gods” since pounding winds, tectonic plate movements, raging storms,  and ruthless waves crashing against the rocks created its magnificent beauty.

What makes Biri Rock Formation an even more interesting natural attraction are the surrounding white-sand beach, a lush mangrove forest with dwarf mangroves and open waters through which I can see live sea urchins,  and other sea living creatures living along a  healthy seagrass bed.   Read More:  http://www.thehappytrip.com/2011/10/biri-rock-formation/
