Cudugnon Cove

by lakwatserong tatay

Next on our list is Cudugnon Cove. Known to be the island where you could find Cudugnon Cave. After our caving activity with Cudugnon Cave, our group choose to take our lunch on its adjacent shores that i called as Cudugnon Cove. It is just a few meters of purely powdered shoreline, with some available nipa houses and huts. Aside from that, the cove is actually covered by trees, that would make a better place to stay and chilax.

After a wavy sailing along El Nido's coast, we arrive a little bit lunch  time in Cudugnon Cave. At first what we did is explore the area, and of course it cave, this island is known for.

our boat

After exploring and photo sessions at the cave, the boat owner suggested that we will gonna take our lunch on this place instead in Snake Island. That for us is really beneficial because of its trees shading the resting area. We will got a time to relax and sleep for a while because of its sunny and smooth air breeze around its cove....

We were really lucky that time because we where the only group stayed on that cove that time, so we felt we really owned the island that time. What we did is just relax and swim all the way.

Going to Cudugnon Cave

Upon waiting for few minutes before serving our lunch, i had the chance to explore the place, take some souvenir shots and and of course my photo opps too. Below are some of my shots around Cudugnon Cove.

Upon asking to the caretaker that time, you must ask permission on the El Nido tourism office, because the place is a privately owned and also available for rent....im really sorry because i do not have the chance to ask who will be the contact person and how much will gonna cost for the overnight stay on Cudugnon Cove. Hope you will share it to me when ever you will have the chance to ask for its accomodation....^_^
