Places to Visit in Governor Generoso

ESL Teacher. Teaching English subject to Chinese students. That's my job, for now. I have been locked inside my house for months now. A week ago my immune system went downhill and I was also diagnosed to have a dengue fever. Due to that, I was admitted to the hospital for three days. Now, I am thinking of finding a new job, but before that my family, relatives and I went to Governor Generoso. My mom's hometown. There are some good places in Governor Generoso and we visited some of it.

We traveled for 4 hours from Davao to Sigaboy, Gov. Gen. Late mi ni gikan so gabii nami na abot, that's why we just slept at my grandparent's house and started visiting some places in the morning.

It is an isolated island across the Governor Generoso. We went there early in the morning around 6 am and it feels like we own the island because we are the only tourist at that time. The water is very clear and the sand is white. There are rock formation and caves also where you can take instagramable pictures. That time the waves are big and wild. We took some good photos and we really had fun playing with the water. The very good thing also is that on the end side of the island the waves are coming in both east and west side.

Parola which is a Lighthouse in English translation. Our second stop.

We just stayed for a couple hours in the Islet and we drove to Parola for 45 minutes. There are 3 lighthouses in Cape San Agustin. There's a lighthouse which is the oldest one was made during colonization of the Spaniards in the Philippines. That was the only lighthouse where we can go on top. In addition to the facts that I am stating, the beach below these lighthouses is already the Celebes Sea and the Cape San Agustin where the three lighthouses are located in the dead end of Davao Oriental.

Entrance Fee: 50 pesos (You can haggle the caretaker)

Last Stop

Our last stop was the Heart Spring Inland Resort at Tibanban, Governor Generoso. We took our lunch there, swam and relaxed. The place consists of two pools for adults and two pools for the children. It is a nice place where you can relax and be with nature because the place is in the middle of the bukid.
