Up until now, I still can’t believe that I have reached the northern tip of Luzon for our DIY Ilocandia Tour, which is Pagudpud. Although it’s tiresome to make your own itinerary, it was also very fulfilling that I was able to do it on my own. Pagudpud is the fourth municipality in Ilocos Norte and is best know for its unspoiled white beaches, patapat viaduct and the windmills.
I arrived in Pagudpud at exactly 12:15 midnight and it only took an hour for me to reach it from Laoag City thanks to the Night Express Van. Our very helpful guide, Kuya Marlon, fetched us at their Municipal Hall then brought us to Klasik Beach Resort where I will be staying overnight for 1,500 pesos. Since I only had limited time in Pagudpud, where I only stayed for like 10 hours, then I need to wake up very early on that day to start our tour at 7:00 in the morning.
I woke up at 5:00 am and started to get ready. I also had a quick walk in the sea shore and was amazed with all the windmills around the area. We don’t have windmills in Cebu so I was really amazed with the stupendous view.
How to Get There?
From Manila: You can take a plane to Laoag City or take a bus to Laoag City.
From Laoag: Take a bus to Pagudpud or if you travel at night after 9pm, you can take the night express van that travels to and from Pagudpud from 9:00pm – 1:00am.
I then went straight for Bangui Windmills, which is 30-45 minutes away from Pagudpud. I don’t really know what’s with the windmills that every time I see one, I get more and more excited and I can’t stop giggling. Ignorant, I know. LOL
