Travel Destination: Pulang Daga Beach, Paracale Camarines Norte, Philippines…

Paracale is “gold country” in Camarines Norte. Since the Pre-Spanish period, local residents have worked the mines and goldsmiths have turned the metal into finely crafted pieces. The town is a center of the jewelry-making industry and although the art has declined in importance, the town is still regarded as a good place to get fine gold jewelry. Antique styles, like the agimon (also known as the alakdan ) or the flat necklace chain of the 19th century, continue to be made in Paracale.

Pulang Daga Beach, which is situated in Paracale is a two hour bus ride from Daet and is an ideal place for picnics and swimming. The beach got it’s name “Pulang Daga” from it’s unique clay-like soil and red sand characteristic. Everything is virtually untouched, undepleted and unpolluted in Pulang Daga. The crystal clear waters with it’s panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean is perfect for snorkeling, scuba diving, and swimming. During low tide, the waters are shallow enough for visitors to walk from reef to reef.
