I went to Pasacao for a break away from work last April 7, Friday. Together with a friend, we were fortunate to be received by the Sariana family (Thanks to Mang Boy and Chloe, his registered nurse daughter who manages the Magtabid Long Beach Resort for the warm accommodation in a comfy native cabin by the shore). I can see tangible acomplishments of the local government that has been laying the groundwork for a serious tourism promotion. I was informed by Emy Velasco of the Metro Naga Development Council on how things are going in Pasacao and how this small town has managed to sustainably preserve its natural endowments through multi-stakeholder participation.
Chloe Sariana, beach resort manager of Magtabid Long Beach Resort is on to some serious work as they prepare for the upcoming Daraw sa Pasacao Summer Festival 2006. Activities are all lined up for the occasion including the Machos and Beauties Body Expose/Nunca de Olvidare , a body-painting contest that is scheduled on April 21, 2006 2 p.m. at Magtabid Long Beach Resort. A trade fare of Bicol native handicrafts and delicacies starts on April 14 and will last til the 21st. For infos related to these activities, you may call (054) 513-9496 or mobile phone number (0919) 7983- 807.
I am publishing some photos on a separate post taken at Magtabid Long Beach Resort (the cleanest and most panoramic beachside resort, as my early morning evaluation would prove), hoping it would entice more tourists and visitors to come to Pasacao this summer and experience a place worth the while.
