yes because its hi tide at that time,,,

bago kayo pumunta sa isang lugar usisain nyo munang mabuti kung anong meron sa lugar hindi masamang magtanong,,,,

she didnt say “3 steps from the shore” ms amy leigh… she said she made 3 more steps near her family so they could hear her…

if you’ll notice the sand at the bottom.. the waves made rippling effect on it.

Baka ito yung nasa dinadaanan ng tubig mula ilog. Meron pong ganitong lugar sa anawangin. This can be found dun sa pinakadulo ng cove, yung may paakyat at may nkalagay na private property. Meron dung parang quick sand, 3 steps lng from shore, sa sobrang lambot ng lupa, siguradong maoout-balance ka at mpapalayo. Plus yung current ng tubig from sea to river or from river to sea!

be sure to ask the bangkero!
Been there done that… 09062720674

dapat pag may naka ligtas sa pag kalunod dapat mag report 2ngkol dto dhil ung mga bankero dun nd nagsasabi tungkol sa mga insidente dun katulad nmin na nalunod pero tnulungan lng kmi ng grupo ng nagiinuman don

Either sa maling lugar kayo binaba ng bangkero ninyo o na excite kayong bumaba na hindi na naka daong ng maayos ang bangka. Pero sa alam ko yung mga sudden drop spots na malapit sa shore hanggang chest deep ko yung pinaka malalim na na experience ko. Im 5′7″ tall. Tama si BENJ, nasa far right side ng cove (when approaching) yung may malalim na spot. But still, chest deep parin yun and hindi sya few steps or meters from the shore, medyo may kalayuan and i doubt kung may bangkerong nag bababa doon. Ingat lang po sa pag baba at bumaba kayo o mag pa baba sa tamang babaan. Suggest ko po the BEST is yung nasa bandang centro ng cove. And one more po, paki respeto ang lugar pag andun po kayo. Thanks and have a great time kung pupunta kayo doon.=)

i just dont like this sentence “Pls. do not visit ANAWANGIN COVE.” Well…….

halos every weekend nasa anawangin ako hindi ako laging nagkukulang sa babala sa mga guest ko. maingat naman sila at sinusunod ang mga sinabi ko sa kanila,, “ang lasing bawal maligo sa malayo kung gustong maligo wag maglasing hehehe kung gustong maglasing maligo sa tabo,,”paiba ina po ang shore sa anawangin minsan biglang lalim minsan naman super babaw ng tubig,,,
nagiiba ang shoreline ng anawangin kaya kung pupunta kayo magingat nalang po huwag basta basta lulusong sa dagat,, last week lang mababaw ang tubig mga 100meters away from the shore eh biglang lalim mga 6ft. siguro tapos ilang steps lang mababaw na ulit,,,

kung pupunta kayo sa anawangin dun kayo magcamp sa dulo sa malapit sa mga batuhan,,, hanapin nyo si amay yun ang caretaker ng lugar na yun,,,

sary 100meters ang nakalagay 10 lang po yun,,,

sary 100meters ang nakalagay 10 lang po yun,,,

thanks!

Anawangin is known for having a strong ‘rip current’.

A rip current is a strong channel of water flowing away from the shoreline, typically through the surf line, and can occur on any shore that has breaking waves. The water flows seaward from near the shore. Typical flow is at 0.5 meters per second (1-2 feet per second), and can be as fast as 2.5 meters per second (8 feet per second). Rip currents can move to different locations on a beach break, up to tens of meters (a few hundred feet) a day. They can occur at any beach with breaking waves.

Rip currents are a source of danger for people in ocean and lake surf. They can be extremely dangerous, dragging swimmers away from the beach and leading to death by drowning when they attempt to fight the current and become exhausted. Although a rare event, rip currents can be deadly for non-swimmers as well: a person standing waist deep in water can be dragged out into deeper waters, where they can drown if they are unable to swim and are not wearing a flotation device. Some beaches are more likely to have strong rip currents than others, and a few are particularly well known for them, the overall topography of the area being the main factor.

I had visited Anawangin twice already. I am a non-swimmer and I had a luxury of going more than 20 feet away fromt the shoreline. I too wasnt aware of the danger that lurks for me and I’m glad that nothing happend.

My advice next time is be aware and practice safety all the time.

I do not agree to this statement _Pls. do not visit ANAWANGIN COVE.A lot of people drowned to death. _ yes marami na nga tragedy na nangyari in this place but lets all remember anawangin cove is not a leisure park nor a resort. let us not blame nature .. yes its beautiful almost like paradise but never under estimate nature she can be dangerous .. our own safety in this domain is our own responsibility.. there is a lot of what ifs should have must have… but this responsibility must start with us when we go there .. tnx to the creator of this site hats off to you . this is a start ! being aware of the dangers of nature, learning from others.. this is what we need knowledge and education so that such tragedy like sir mel’s (one of tragic deaths in anawangin)and the others can be avoided.. to the authorities covering anawangin and the rest of pundaquit we hope you hear their stories and this people asking for actions, please remember you and your people in this place is a stakeholder .. your people earn money and make a living out of this place pls take care of it and the people who visits. to visitors practice precautions and safety firsts, be aware , do research.. to everyone let us all be safe….God bless us all..

awww…. we’ll be going to Anawangin tomorrow… and after all the things that I’ve read here I don’t know if i still want to come… =((

guys masyado kc kayo nadadala sa ganda ng anawangin. sa mababaw na part di nyo ba nanotice na may malalim at mababaw?? may current ung water dun kaya ung mga di marunong naaamaze kc nga akala pa nila mababaw… ang sabi ng mga bangkero kung di marunong lumangoy magingat at wag na pumunta sa malalim…. meron kc naencounter na 2boys at 1 girl isa lang marunong s kanila buti na lang napadaan bangka namin muntik na malunod ung girl at ung isang lalaki… mapapansin nyo na ung iba lumalayo pa at natutuwa dahil mababaw ang akala nila pero malalim na… wag nyo isipin na misteryoso ang nature ng anawangin masyado lang kayo naaliw sa kagandahan kaya nagyari un sa inyo… mapapansin nyo pa ung iba umaakyat pa ng bundok kahit di alam kung ano meron don… just be safe na lang po observe precautions… maganda ang anawangin…. may makukulit lang talagang tao..

If you’re going for a trip in the beach, it’s common sense that if you can’t swim, don’t go far off from the shore or more than waist deep of water if you’re not wearing a floating device… Common sense.. Anyone who can’t swim can drown even in a swimming pool in your own backyard.. Just knowing how to “float” on water doesn’t mean you can swim.. So, In places like Anwangin Cove, all accidents that occur in that place are all product of carelessness and hard-headedness of people.. If you can’t swim, I mean really swim, don’t go wandering off the beach without a floating device.. Don’t let your kids go in the water with out a floating device and most importantly, don’t let them wander off out of your sight.. It’s best to bring along friends or family who CAN swim, and ALWAYS bring floating devices with you.. If you’re going to be intoxicated with alcohol, DONT GO IN THE WATER.. Common sense saves lives.. Lack of it will always be the cause of accidents.. Anawangin Cove is one of the best Nature Destinations in the Philippines.. Treat it with respect..

sir okay maganda nga sa anawangin may climb kami dun this coming may 29 to 30 clean up drive…sana lahat safe

So true … just went here 3 weeks ago. I almost drowned with two of my female friends. The weird part is a few meters just to our right the water is just above the waist and the people around us thought that we were not seriously drowning.

The terrain on the beach here is very uneven. They should put depth markers
