San Juan Waves

The San Juan beach in La Union may not be as beautiful as the beaches in Bolinao and in Luna, but it is famous because of its big waves - it is in fact, known as the Surfing Capital of the North!

San Juan Surfing Break

San Juan Surfing Break is a beach party organized annually during the month of October while "semestral break" is normally ongoing. The event lasts from 3 to 5 days with beach activities in the morning that usually includes photography, sports, and of course, surfing...up to the evening bikini pageants and beach parties with live bands! 

Sneak Peek of Live Big Waves

San Juan beach is not comparable to Bolinao's and Luna's. But I can consider this rocky area as the best place to witness how big waves are enjoyed by many surfers!

Surfboards in Yabes Resort

Yabes is one of the resorts found around the beach, and it's where I've seen the comedy actress Tuesday Vargas having her meal with some colleagues... Oh, well... San Juan beach is also Jericho Rosales' favorite to surf!

Rock Garden Resort

The Rock Garden Resort located in Brgy. Arnedo, Bolinao, Pangasinan is where I had my very first stay. It's a big resort that has restaurant, cottages, rooms, event center, function hall, sheds, pool, chapel and surprisingly, a zoo!

Inside the resort, overlooking the sea!

This area is the best spot to take pictures because the quality and color of the sand is good to the eyes, and the angle gives a better image of the entire place.

The Rock Garden Chapel

It's a good idea that Rock Garden has a built chapel within its vicinity - a place to uplift your spirituality.

Rock Garden's Private Pool

I was supposed to have a full access to the entire place so I wanted to go to the pool area. But as you can see, the door's locked and nobody around was there to open it for me - it was still early. I didn't waste my time waiting, of course, because there's a lot more that awaits me!

The Bridge to Rock Garden Chapel

All visitors wishing to see the Chapel must pass this bridge.
