Port Of Siquijor

I just had to write this blog.

I was very impressed with the Port of Siquijor when we arrived there the other week for our Regional MANCOM Conference.





For a tiny island, you don't expect a long covered walkway, a clean and comfy terminal, and fine white sand beach at the port. Well surprise!... that was exactly what welcomed us.











We arrived in Siquijor via Weesam fast seacraft. Take note, we didn't have to wade through the waters to get to the beach like in Boracay. Plus, we instantly felt a sense of tranquility ...zen like peace (there are no wild parties and noisy karaokes... thank God)




My companions said it seems a great place for retirees. In fact, there were several Europeans who also arrived on that day , a few of them retirees --- the quiet type.





I learned that Siquijodnons do not like rowdy, brassy and noisy tourists. Good thing that they scare a good number of them with talks of witchcraft and the evil eye --- just kidding.

That was my third visit to the island after several years. It has improved a lot it terms of infrastructure.




During the MANCOM, we stayed at the Coco Grove Beach Resort. I found it to be a conducive place for meditating, book reading and writing.
