Thinking of where we can make the most of the breezy weather? Mhmmm. To the beaaaccchhhh!!!
Riding our trusty purple family jeep, we found ourselves heading to the silent and secluded corner of Bogo, the laidback beach of Odlot. Yes, I must admit, we've been here so many times that I've lost count.. But this beach just offers a different flavor every time we set off on another beach getaway.
One of the reasons why our family loves this humble beach so much is its simplicity and serenity. Unlike other beaches here in the North, Odlot Beach doesn't have the famous white sand but it has a unique sand of its own that is mixed with tiny corals and shells. And when you look around, you'll see that the beach has no big resorts or any developments, so it's just nature, the fresh air, and the happy people who are 100% enjoying their time on the beach.
The cottages are very humble and rustic, making them a very budget-friendly getaway for families like ours. Each cottage only costs 150 pesos for a whole day use. And since the beach is located downhill, most part of the beach has no Network Connection/ Service Provider, making everyone who comes to the beach fully immersed in the moment. And this is one thing I truly love about the beach. It's off connection with the virtual world and the way it pulls someone into nature's beautiful power.
Personally, what I also love about this beach are the docked fishing boats of the locals. It's just so heartwarming to see them lined up waiting to go ashore. For me, they are like soldiers facing the sea, waiting for their owners to take them and sail them in the ocean.
And here's the bonus part: if the weather is windy, Odlot beach levels up to a little adventure. Its waves get big enough to rock the swimmers!. It's not common to experience these big, playful waves on the beaches near my hometown, so experiencing this in Odlot feels like another level. It's just a great feeling to simply stand on the sea and let the waves take the wheel, rocking our bodies! Oh! The kids love it so much! It's a two-in-one treat, getting a massage while swimming! Haha!
Not to mention the coconut trees that seem to compete with each other to see who will be the tallest. Maybe the tallest one would win the best seat in the house, getting the grandest view of the beach far away.Haha. Just my wild imagination.
These are just the laid-back features of the beach that we are in love with, but on top of it all, it's the pure experience we always get every time we go to Odlot beach. Its relaxed atmosphere, simplicity, and charm always bring us closer together.
If asked if I would go back to the beach? Definitely, definitely a hundred times coming!

beautiful and beautiful scenery, I really like seeing it.
Thank you, azymiy. It is a simple beach, so laidback, and I think that's what makes the beach even more beautiful.
have a beautiful day Azy.!π
Beach outing is one of the best thing we could do. Bringing them to beaches that super affordable will surely makes them happy.
This is very true Ma'am. Regardless of what type of beach, super happy njd ang family if magpadagat na.π
When I see it, I miss going out with my family and friends on the beach. That's amazing scenery.
This may be a sign that you should go to the beach with your family this summer.π
Beach bonding I really love. You can do swimming, boodle fight and the place is relaxing. Beautiful beach and its a budget friendly. Have a wonderful bonding with your family.π
I agree with the Boodle fight on the beach. It makes the experience more unforgettable! Thanks katiekate! Have a beautiful day ahead.π
Your welcome. Eating my hand, sharing food simple form of happiness. So genuine to share with family and friends. Enjoy and Have a nice day π₯°
the beach is the most enjoyable place. it can be seen from the children playing with the tire holder very very happy. the weather is also very supportive.
This is what I also love about this beach. The kids enjoyed it more than we did! And playing with a tire floating on the beach is their favorite thing to do on this beach.
Thanks Reachdream! Have a beautiful day ahead!π
Enjoying the simple beach with your family with a good food is a good moment share and a worth time spend with.
I definitely agree. No matter how simple the beach is and how simple the food is it becomes great when shared with the family! and yes, the beach is one of the best places to do it!
Beautiful day spent at the beach with relaxing view. Family outing is always something to look forward to and we don't want the day to pass by so fast. I also like looking at traditional boats docked by the beach. It reminds me of my late father who used to own a small boat. If I lived near this beach, I would come here often too.
Beautiful scenery! I think white sand beaches are overrated, I like this brown sand that works well when you do sand castles! The important thing is that you and your family had a great and quality time. Were you able to do a lot of water activities? π
Itβs proof that sometimes the best escapes donβt need all the frills; they just need good company and a peaceful, beautiful setting to truly be special.π©·
Enjoying the beauty of the beach is a very enjoyable thing, the beach is my favorite place, I really like itβ€οΈ
Same as ours!. Our family loves the beach so much. That sometimes we go beaching for no reason or no occasion. We just love it!
