Dining

My friends from Baguio City came down to La Union in the middle of Holy Week to get some beach vibes. I had to meet them at a restaurant a short drive from our home. We went straight ahead after eating lunch to find a good spot where we could swim and leave our belongings. We started looking for affordable, good cottages in the area and came across Camp Avenue. Even though I've been here before, I have to show my friends what it looks like.

One of the treasures of my province, La Union, when it comes to camping is Camp Avenue. Camp Avenue is a beach resort here in my town, Barangay Taboc, San Juan, that is a secret away from Elyu (L.U. - La Union) crowd's usual gathering spot. If you're coming from the south, like Manila, taking the left turn to get to the resort entrance from the highway is a steep slope, so getting to this beach destination can be quite challenging.

When you get to the place, you'll be taken aback by the resort's decor, which is hidden in the bushy roadside with hammocks before the entrance. In addition, there is parking at the resort, though it can be difficult to find a spot other than the previously mentioned vehicle dive from the highway. Back to the styles of the retreat, it flaunts a bohemian vibe, with gorgeous hippy resort's access to amenities. When I first visited the place years ago, I was immediately drawn in by what appeared to be hanging runes, recycled glass bottles, and other related items. I just thought it was soulfully fantastic.

As you go along from the reception area, you can see a couple of nipa huts for rent. Some have air-conditioning and I think some only have fans on it. Regardless, they are all pretty. There is also a huge dining area next to a bar. It is very cozy and exudes the laid-back atmosphere that draws people here in the first place. Another thing is that you can walk to the beach in a few minutes! Additionally, there is a native-made gathering space that can be reached by ascending the stairs (forgot to take photos since we were busy looking around). A few bougainvillea plants are also planted around the place that makes it more attractive.

Although we decided to transfer to another spot somewhere in the surfing area, the place have good vibes and location. Must visit.
