Our Saturday adventure was a trip to Carbin Reef, a 25 minute banca ride from Sagay town. We left Bacolod at 8 am and took a 2 hour road trip to Sagay, so by the time we got to the sandbar, it was blazing hot! You can see from the picture above that there was very little shelter from the sun. I forgot to bring my rash guard, so despite the sunblock, I didn't dare take my t-shirt off (luckily I didn't burn too much). But it was worth it. This 32,000 hectare marine reserve is a jewel tourist spot--we went snorkeling and saw giant clams at 10 feet! We were quite lucky to see this, our diver buddy told us that in most other dives spots around the Philippines, giant clams appear only at 80 to 100 feet. Peaceful place, lots of grilled fish for lunch, great company--we were totally in sync with nature!
