Here's a detailed travel guide for Samalan Camp and Sea contributed by MeaKryztine Aquiviano:
As for me, I always wanted a beach resort that is far away from civilization, peaceful and quiet where i can chill and relax. Also a crystal clear water is a plus for me.
The initial plan is to book overnight in Alorro Beach Resort but as I enter the vicinity it’s just too crowded for me that day and the beach area are small. So we transfer to another resort beside the Alorro which is the Samalan Camp and Sea and walaaaah we hit the jackpot. 🌊

HOW TO GET TO SAMALAN
Via Magsaysay Port
✨ From there, take a ferry boat going to Kaputian port.Note: Morning is the best time to go there. Sometimes pag peak season 10am palang wala ng bangka. So mahuhulog kayo sa chartered boat which is expensive na ang fare.
✨It takes you 45 mins to reach Kaputian and fare is Php60/head per way.
✨From there, motorcycle “habal-habal” are available to rent actually they will approach every passenger upon arrival.
✨Kaputian Port to Samalan ₱75-100/head per way and it takes you almost an hour to get there. Get ready for a bumpy ride! 🏍
P.S don’t forget to haggle the fare sa habal-habal yung ibang driver kasi ₱100 ung sinisingil ☺️
BOOK A RESORT NEARBY
