Sadagat Beach Camp I haven't expected a great beach up north of Cebu. Sandy beach and picturesque location. In addition, nice glamping/ camping experience with CLEAN restrooms and several kitchen sinks. The place is spacious and good for family, friends, and lovers to have quality time. Friendly staff and pet-friendly resort. Our dog Jinggoy enjoyed strolling the place. Overall, great experience in Sadagat Camp Beach Resort. Highly recommended! #beachlife#campingglamping#foodie#mytripvlog#urbanexplorer#awesomepic#cafe#summervacation#celebratewithtrip#2023travelwish#couplestrip

I would highly recommend Bakhaw Garden Restaurant.5 Star rating for this restaurant that serves authentic Filipino food. The taste and the quality of their foods satisfy your cravings. I will definitely share this experience with my family and friends back in the city. Kudos to the kitchen staff who cooked the food so well, labor of love Abby was so accommodating and easy to deal with, from accepting the reservation through FB messenger even until we left. She made us feel at home and comfortable. Nice ambiance too. I hope there will be many more Abby's in different restaurants in Cebu #mytripvlog#urbanexplorer#awesomepic#cafe#summervacation#celebratewithtrip#2023travelwish#themepark#couplestrip

There’s something about being alone on a beach that feels both liberating and humbling. That’s exactly what I experienced when I did a solo beach camp at Sadagat, Medellin, Cebu—a peaceful, untouched coastal paradise where it was just me, the sea, and the stars. Located in Medellin, northern Cebu, Sadagat Beach is a rising camping spot known for its white sand, clear waters, and peaceful atmosphere. From Cebu City, I drove 3-hours to reach the campsite. Unlike crowded tourist beaches, Sadagat had a laid-back, almost secret feel—no loud resorts, no parties, just pure nature --since it was a weekday. With my camp set, I spent the afternoon simply enjoying the beach. No distractions, no itinerary—just the sound of the waves and the feel of the sand beneath my feet. As the sun dipped below the horizon, the sky exploded in shades of orange, pink, and gold. It was one of those sunsets that you just watch in silence, completely in awe of nature’s beauty. Later that night, with no city lights nearby, the sky came alive with a blanket of stars. Lying on the sand, staring up at the Milky Way, I felt an overwhelming sense of peace. Being alone didn’t feel lonely—it felt freeing. Spending a night alone in Sadagat reminded me why I love solo travel—it’s a chance to disconnect from the noise of the world and reconnect with yourself.

#besthotels Address - San Roque, Kawit, Medellin, Cebu Ambiance/Facilities - Feel the ocean breeze and relax. It has an overlooking view and good for recharging your energy. It's quite and peaceful. A swimming pool to enjoy and a restaurant. It also offers free breakfast for guests. Highlights - Tarra de Laville is one of the new hotels in Kawit Medellin. It has a homey ambiance. Avg. Price per Person - We were 4pax and paid 3,699pesos for 1 room. Rating - 3.7 The place itself is beautiful no doubt but the service has to be improved. We were having dinner like 8pm at the restaurant with our food since they don't have corkage and then the receptionist just turned off the lights while we were eating because it's their time to go home. That was really annoying. We just had to eat quickly and went somewhere else. #cebuphilippines #exploremedellin #medellincebu

The Aisle of Medellin is a 7.5 km highway offers travelers a scenic stunning landscape. As a rider and constant traveller, I was captivated by its long-straight highway in the middle of sugarcane plantation. This highway is located at the North part of Cebu in the Municipality of Medellin. You can also pass this highway if you’re going to #daanbantayan which is also 1 boat ride to #bantayanisland. If you pass by this highway, don’t forget to stop by to appreciate the Scenic Highway of #aisleofmedellin. #Ridestomedellin #cebutravel

Bamboo Forest in Medellin, Cebu is a beautiful and serene location for nature lovers and photographers alike. The towering bamboo trees create a peaceful and unique environment to explore.

With an entrance fee of only 20 Pesos, you can spend the whole day taking pictures of this marvelous bamboo scenery. It won’t also be difficult to locate the spot since it’s just a few minutes tricycle ride from the town proper. Anytime is the perfect time to visit the forest for a photo though different times of the day offers a different lighting. #cebu #medellin #Philippines

#SummerIsSummer Hello-!! I went camping with my friend to Medellin, the tip of Cebu. Medellin must be an unfamiliar place, but it's a quiet rural town. It's a place with great natural scenery^^ It was a yoga trip hosted by a yoga instructor my friend knows~ I just went along because I was invited. When we arrived in Medellin, we watched the sunset at Medellin Beach, we went to a relative's house of one of the yoga practitioners to have dinner, and then moved to the campsite and pitched our tents. At night, we all watched a yoga video and fell asleep, and woke up at dawn and started morning yoga.!!! After yoga, we rode a sky bike.ㅋ I was so scared I almost jumped… … … ..(shivering) I always do dynamic activities, so I felt really good after going on a static trip. It was fun~ #Philippines #Camping #Medellin #Cebu #CebuTravel #CebuMedellin #HotPlace #LivingInThePhilippines #LivingInCebu #PhilippineTravel #EveryCornerOfCebu #SummerCapture #InSummer #Vacation #CamCance #CebuCamping
