Fish landing at Tambobo Bay in Siaton

Fish landing at Tambobo Bay in Siaton

On our exploratory trip along the Bonawon Coastal Highway from Zamboanguita to Siation in the province of Negros Oriental, we arrived at the local fishing port on Tambobo Bay towards the end. By chance, we were lucky enough to see fish being brought ashore during our visit. There were several fishmongers on site with their vehicles, buying up large quantities of freshly caught fish. [siteorigin_widget class=”WP_Widget_Media_Gallery”][/siteorigin_widget] We were also allowed to buy and take home five kilograms of two types of fish for our own use. It was a great experience to see how the large quantities of fish were sorted, weighed, packaged and sold.

Kookoo’s nest – a hidden treasure

Climb more than a hundred steps to reach Kookoo’s Nest Eco-lodge, a charming enclave of nine exquisite, handcrafted bamboo beach huts and rooms clustered around a rustic restaurant. Nestled in a grove of trees, the lodge slopes gracefully down the steep hillside that leads to a secluded sandy cove.     Kookoo’s Nest Eco-Lodge is designed to offer an experience of simplicity, relaxation and recreation on a private, sheltered white sand beach. Guests can bask in the beauty of the vibrant coral reefs, experience breathtaking sunsets and savor delicious cuisine.       At the heart of Kookoo’s Nest is our kitchen, where local villagers skillfully prepare fresh, delicious food for the restaurant. The huts and structures showcase the craftsmanship of the Antulang village artisans, who use traditional techniques and locally sourced bamboo and nipa palm leaves in their construction.     For the adventurous, a small diving school offers dives and courses in the breathtaking coral reefs around the peninsula. Snorkeling enthusiasts can make use of the available equipment, and kayaks can be rented to explore remote beaches, Tambobo Bay, the fishing village and the mangroves.
