CAGWAIT SPACEBAR RESORT: MDI'S CHOICE-SUMMER OUTING '13



I am fortunate enough to be part of “Motorjoy Depot, Inc.” team where extravagant summer outing is annually celebrated. 2013 summer outing falls on the 11th day of May in Cagwait Spacebar Resort Cagwait is one of the municipalities of Surigao del Sur and it is where the C-shaped off white sand beach nestled.
Since it’s my passion documenting what our country has to offer, I knew exactly how much time will it take to be in Cagwait Spacebar Resort. As per my stopwatch, it took 3:28:30 hours to be there from Cabadbaran City using van as our mode of transportation. 
2 months before the outing took place, I and my Surigaonon friends were actually planning to visit that resort right after knowing that it is prevalently identified as Caraga’s little boracay. Imagine?? Caraga’s little boracay?? This poor lakwatchera’s soul rejoices as she’s notified that the outing will be held there, given that it’s company’s expense.
Entrance fee is P10.00 as of May 2013. Pool fee is P 100.00 and the unlimited usage of the long slide costs P100.00. One unique thing about this slide is that it will land you directly to the sea!

We arrived around 6pm. We were told to drop our bags in our designated room. Then we took a little rest before roaming around. After few minutes we all gathered in the function hall where dinner was prepared. I didn't feel famished at all until I tasted the bountiful seafoods. Love it J. Foods that are free of charge really taste great!

I woke up early in the morning and changed my clothes then went outside to see how this “little boracay” looks like. I am a bit frustrated. I was expecting a pearl white sand beach as what I’ve seen in google pictures.  If I am to rate Cagwait beach from 1 to 10, I’d rate it 7. Atleast it is 3 steps closer to 10.

Here are the actual pictures of the resort.

The resort is quite small in a way that you can just roam around in less than 10 minutes. Rest assured that it can accommodate hundreds of guests.
