BEST PLACES IN NORTHERN SAMAR
The natural beauty of Northern Samar has a lot of tourism potentials that are still undiscovered and unknown to many tourists.
Taking a tour of the islands is a great way to get a feel for the local history and culture. There are plenty of scenic spots to discover, such as the enchanting rock formation, incredible waterfalls and hot spring, sandy beaches and coral reefs, famous old churches, clear rivers, caves, virgin forests and many other secret places. The three secret places are the islands of Biri, Capul and Dalupiri, all off the coast of Northern Samar. Remote and desolate, and definitely off the normal tourist track, Northern Samar is a province which evokes powerful images and untouched beauty.

Location: Barangay Cagbayang, Oquendo District, Calbayog City, Samar, Philippines
Crossing the dam made me feel better as I my nephew told me that the falls is barely 5 minutes which was true enough and my heart jumped with joy as I hear the cascading sound of the water falls.
It was feeling of relief and excitement as the clearing of trees slowly and dramatically showcased the stunning and marvelous sight of Tabonok Waterfalls. It was more than a prize of my 55-minute trek.
The water was inviting then and I wasted no time to plunge in the cool basin of the waterfalls. It was only me and my nephew who enjoyed the sublime beauty of the water falls. Read More: http://lexicalcrown.blogspot.com/2016/01/tabokno-water-falls.html
San Vicente Island

To go to San Vicente one has to take the boat from San Isidro, N. Samar, the first town of N. Samar if one is coming from Calbayog. The boat docks at the private port of Sanvic, a large business establishment in the town. There is only one trip daily to San Vicente. With a fare of 100 pesos, the boat departs every two o’clock in the afternoon. From San Vicente the departure time is seven o’clock in the morning. Since there were plenty of cement bags that they were trying to load, our boat actually left at 2:35pm that day.
We had an uneventful two hours and fifteen minutes ride to San Vicente. Fr. Rey Lagrimas, the mission priest in San Vicente was already waiting with native snacks of bibingka and fried bananas ready when we arrived at the convento. I had previously asked him if he could be the one to prepare our meals and to secure a boat in going to the islands. The island beaches of San Vicente are still a 45 minute boat ride from the town proper. Since it was already getting late we had to hurry so that we could arrive in the island of Sila, the island where the pink beach is found and where we planned to have an overnight camping before it got very dark.
