| One of the developing resorts at Maniwaya Island in Sta. Cruz, Marinduque. Maniwaya attracts local tourists because it is the island closest to Manila with powdery white sand and is just there waiting for anyone who likes quietude. |
 |
| How do you get to Maniwaya? In this case, this small group took a pump boat at Buyabod Port, also in Sta. Cruz, to get to Maniwaya. |
 |
| They finally come this close to the island after one hour and a half of boat ride. |
 |
| Here beckons Maniwaya's white sand beach, with the mountains of Sta. Cruz in the background. |
 |
| The group is greeted by these cottages, one of few private places on the rise in Maniwaya. |
 |
| They could hardly wait and at once took to the water. |
 |
| Pretty girl stayed ashore to cook some fish. Her name is Pretty, anyway. |
 |
| Tong-its after swimming as the sun's too hot daw for their skin, sabi ha. |
 |
| Later Kryx decides he's had it and off he goes to explore other parts of the island. |
 |
| Group excitedly discovers a fast developing resort, called Residencia de Palo Maria - with cool, cozy cottages and a swimming pool still being constucted. |
 |
| Kryx happily finds a unique duyan, swing in the Palo Maria resort premises. |
 |
| He also discovers a jetski, tries it. |
 |
| He also comes across this small, spiny, creepy globular animal... |
 |
| Later, the group had more fun playing with the sand.. |
 |
| Another strange creature found on the beach... |
 |
| Close towards sunset, they start having shots of Emperador. |
 |
| Sunset over Pulo Island just across Maniwaya. |
 |
| And darkness creeps in. |
