Wakeboarding at Camsur

Technorati Profile
As we continue to explore the Bicol region, top on our list is to visit the world famous wakeboarding site. Where else but in Camarines Sur. The Camsur water sports complex is said to be the best water cable park in the world.

How to get there:

By Air - Air Philippines fly directly to Pili airport at Naga city and you can just take a shuttle from there or Cebu Pacific flight to Naga then a van or jeepney ride to CWC.
By Land - Isarog bus lines (to Naga) BLTB, JB Line, Bicol Express and Philtranco bus company (to Legaspi).

The accommodations are great and you'd be surprised that the rates are very affordable! Spending on your budget and need, you have several options to choose from: Trailers, Mansion, Cabanas and Villas. Visit their website for more information- http://www.camsurwatersportscomplex.com/accomodations_rooms.

I never tried wakeboarding before and after I tried it, I think my Camsur experience made me found a new hobby.



Camsur Hotel lobby



Trailer Park accomodation


The Cabanas (where we stayed)


2 single bed cost only about PHP 1,250.00! Really a good price for a nice room like this. :)


Free shuttle for all the guest that wants to move around the complex.


The water cable park


A lounge area where you can watch the wakeboarders



CabaƱas overlooking the wakeboard site can be rented for p1200 ( consumable ) and it would be reserved for you for the whole day.



Another pool near the CWC restaurant


Gear rental area


No turning back! This is me, registering to wakeboard


Thanks to our friend JR (Ces' friend from Naga), for lending us his stuff


Getting ready for the action! :) This is it! I'm next in line! Beginners used knee boards first, the pro's do it standing up. Before taking off, beginners are briefed with the basic do's and don'ts.


YIHAAA!!! That's me skiing off! I was able to do 3 rounds on my first try. Pretty impresive for a first timer like me! Haha. :P



Oops..! My first fall.


Next try- My attempt to wake board standing up!


It wasn't successful since I fell on the first 3 mins on the water, but at least I tried! =)


Eating at the CWC (Camsur Watersports Complex) restaurant


Try their famous "Laing Pizza!" Yum! :)
