TWO IS BETTER THAN ONE: BRITANIA GROUP OF ISLANDS & SARNIMIAN RESORT :-)

Summer is absolutely fun and worth-remembering if you spend it with your silly friends. Unplanned get-together is often the successful one. We intend to spend our summer in Samal Island for 2days but due to financial constraint, we were not able to push-through with our 1 month old plan. However, the idea of going to Britania Islands popped up when I and my cousin talked about white sand and island hopping activities. At the last minute, we decided to have our summer break in Britania instead of having it in Samal Islands.
We made itinerary and estimated the budgetary requirement. We called our batchmates pertaining to our plan wherein they cheerfully seconded the motion. We made it!
 
We traveled 4 hours from Cabadbaran City to San Agustin, Surigao del Sur. We arrived there around 7:00 o’clock in the morning. We paid the environmental fee amounting to Php 25.00/head. We have also paid Php 1,500.00 for the pump boat for our island hopping. The boat can accommodate up to 12pax.

We started our island hopping activity at 8AM and we ended around 12NN. There are actually four major islands in Britania, to wit:  Naked Island, Hagonoy Island, Boslon Island and Hiyor hiyoran Island.






SARNIMIAN RESORT

Sarnimian Resort is not part of our planned route.In fact, it is located in Rosario, Agusan del Sur or 2 hours away from Britania, San Agustin. As far as we know, it is the only resort in Caraga that offers sky cycling. Sky cycling (which we’ve never tried before) is the sole reason why we unanimously agreed to go there. Why go to Bohol when Caraga can feed your desires, right?
Entrance fee is Php 75.00/pax. Sky cycling is only Php 50.00 for two-way ride. Isn't it affordable?
