San Felipe, a small municipality in Zambales, boasts a coastline dotted with numerous beach resorts. Experience the thrill of surfing at Monte Cruz Beach where the waves are huge! Nature lovers can enjoy a 45-minute trek to Sagpat Falls. Visit Century Old Acacia Tree, which signifies the efforts of the locals to keep San Felipe the greenest place in Zambales. Don’t forget to capture picturesque photos of Lubong-Nangoloan Falls/Anghalo Falls either. The journey to this waterfall includes a bumpy carabao ride, which adds to the adventure. Later, head to Mommy Phoebe’s Place and try their buttered shrimp.
If you love to learn about the local specialties of a place like I do, attend the Panagkakadua-an Festival. It’s celebrated once every three years to promote local products like longganisa, chicharon, and others.
