Venue 1 : Badian

Hey guys!
The first option sa atong summer outing is of course BADIAN!! right mother? (Ms Rhea) :-)
As proposed we will go directly to Lambug Badian and stay their overnight the next morning we will  go to Kawasan Falls. So it's like hitting 2 birds with 1 stone, chos lang. About Lambug here it is:

Lambug Badian Information:

Since we are adventurous we will take the bus. Ang AC buses leave in 30-minute intervals if I am not mistaken.  So if we miss one, there's definitely going to be another trip after that.  We just have to wait longer.  Tell the bus conductor to drop us off Badian town proper, specifically in the public market area.  From there, we can either ride a tricycle or a multicab to go to Lambug beach, Taking the bus+ tricycle roughly takes 3 or more hours to reach the destination. Fare costs: Ceres Bus - P117.00 non-aircon (Cebu to Badian town proper) | Tricycle/Multicab - P20 per person (Badian town proper to Lambug beach)

Accommodation:The usual resort there or sikat according to my research is Grandeur Beach Resort but as per Ms. Venice sa AEES booked na sila until June. So mangit na lang tag lain na resort didto or mga villa na for rent. An example is Manang Virgie's villa. I saw this sa blog ra pod.

  "There are two big villas or houses, as Manang Virgie calls them.  Overnight rate is P2500.  Not that pricey considering there are 2 rooms, and a total or 6 double beds!  And there's no maximum number of guest per villa too, I think.  There are smaller overnight rooms in her place too that are priced at P1000 per night for two.  I find Manang Virgie's hospitability extremely good.  She makes sure all her guests check out of her place with nothing but compliments about her service during the stay.  For reservations, you can reach her at- 09359251828, 09067378068, 09351361963. "

Food/Drinks:There are no big-time resorts in the area, the same goes for restaurants.  Before heading to Lambug beach,we should make sure na we bring our own food ky the place is not like Moalboal na daghan og resorts / stores around nakabasa ko sa blog na pwede ra moluto si Manang Virige so dapat mamalit lang ta for our consumption daan sa merkado or from the city.
Below are the pictures of the beach in Lambug





The next day we will go to Kawasan Falls, the distance is like 30 mins to 1 hour from Lambug to Matutinao where Kawasan is. 

There is an entrance fee of P10 per person sa Kawasan.
Some will offer guide when we reach the area but its not needed na coz we have Ms. Rhea. We need to walk from the national road to Kawasan for about 15 to 30 mins. 

Sample Picture sa Kawasan:
