I’ve been to the Calaguas in 2008, when the beach was still wild and undiscovered. Backpackers and beach lovers soon found out about the island and set up tents in campsites along the beach. In 2012, the first Waling-Waling Resort was built on the island.

The Calaguas is one of the best kept secret beach destinations in the Philippines, located in Camarines Norte, Bicol. “Cal” means lime and “aguas” translates to water in Spanish.

It’s now famous for Mahabang Buhangin’s 1.27 km powdery white sand on Tinaga Island, the biggest island in the Calaguas. Some people describe it as the perfect beach and a throwback to Boracay 25 years ago. Read more: http://www.ourawesomeplanet.com/awesome/2015/10/calaguas-waling-waling.html#tCeVzk21Z2KwRUmV.99
