This post will start my Hundred Islands Series. You may wonder why such title. Well, Lucap has one of the best skyline in Pangasinan that all photos in this set involve shots of the sky - thus, while in Lucap, you should look up.
Barangay Lucap in Alaminos, Pangasinan is the jum-off point to the Hundred Islands. From its wharf, it takes about 20 minutes to reach the islands. Although there are few accomodations on the islands itself, it is in Lucap where Hotels and resorts are located. If you are planning on an overnight stay, it is advisable to stay at one of the hotels in Lucap and leave for the beach by early morning. Other than a stroll in the Light Tower and it's nearby park, there is really nothing much to do in Lucap. The food however in Maxine By The Sea (where we stayed) are great specially their calamare. But just to make the trip worthwhile, one thing you could do is gaze up in the sky (preferably with San Mig Lights on hand) and wander at the amazing sunset as it fades in to the sea.
More on the Hundred Islands soon...

Nagpunta kami dyan. Nung nasa jump-off na kami, hindi kami natuloy dahil pinigilan kami ng tatay ng kasama namin. Hindi daw magandang bumiyahe kapag mahal na araw.
Nice clouds...

wow ganda... ive never been there.. isa yan sa mga places na gusto ko mapuntahan.
I am from Anda Pangasinan. My place is called the mother of the hundred Island because it is the largest Island North of the national park and it is the only Island town in Pangasinan. In my entire lifetime though I have been to Hundred Islands only thrice. I heard that they tried to renovate the place. Sana nga nag-improve kasi medyo pumapangit na dati.
