Philippines' Island Of Surprises (Masbate)
HTML-код

- THIS, FOR ME, WAS THE PHILIPPINES' ISLAND OF SURPRISES.
Masbate - it's not so well documented. Known for its cattle ranches (it's the second largest producer of beef in the country), it also holds so many surprises - like beautiful beaches, coastline, mountains, and Bronze Age history!
My journey from one end of the island to the other was full of magical experiences - from Fazenda da Esperanza ranch, that helps rehabilitate former drug and alcohol addicts, in Milagros, to the majestic Matayum Lagoon in Cataingan.
What a fantastic island!

The positive side of Masbate is that tourism hasn't too much developed. It's real nature with very few foreigners. I came for the first time in 1991 to Masbate. My wife is from Masbate and now after 25 years living far away from Masbate we came back in 2016 for retirement. I love the nature and relaxed lifestyle of the people....but sometimes they are too relaxed. I think that in the future Masbate can offer more nature than other tourist cities which are overcrowded by tourists and pollution. The local government is doing right not pushing too hard the development of tourism.
Me too over 20 years a lot of new beach resorts now in Manoboc Baleno 😊
I'm one mind with you with fear of the Philippines transforming into western and other Asian minded people. I want to retain our innocence and be left in peace. I don't want secularism, too much modernism that take away should and replaced with egotistic humanv self proclaimed correctness.
It is because of geopolitics there that is why it is still a third class province. there was a time that the province was considered an election hotspot because of various killings of opposing political factions. nothing much have change it is sad that the politicians there control everything even its progress. Masbate has a lot to offer in tourism.
The main problem of that island is the NPA terrorist infestation. They may have been wiped out for now by the military and NTF-ELCAC and became inactive. But surviving members became motorcycle-riding hold-up men preying for lone motorists along the highways. That island has a moniker of being the Wild West of the Philippines, lose firearms are everywhere.
Even local tourists are afraid of travelling there. It's an island infested with communist terrorists.
Oh my gosh 😱Masbate is beautiful than Siargao❤ the scenery, beach ,the hills ,the Road ,the people are all amazing. 👍🌄🌳
Ahah siargao is more beautiful thats why more foreigners there than locals😂
@@U_KCuF nah! siargao has beautiful beaches only also famous for sufing but masbate also has nices beaches and historical landmarks it plus very beautiful landscapes good for cattle raising that is why there so many ranches there. magpunta ka muna sa masbate para malaman mo hehe.. puro ka siargao.
Masbate is one of those big islands in the Philippines that is not very well known. Very few vloggers explore that island. The place looks beautiful and peaceful.
Killings, hold-up by motorcycle-riding bandits along highways, and communist terrorist attacks are common in that island. It is very dangerous there during elections. There are too many illegal firearms in every towns.
Masbate is awesome... the incredible almost undeveloped shoreline, the deep green vegetations inland, the warmth of the locals, the second biggest beef producers in PH, and many more amazing things from one end to another is just mind-blowing. I love the man made lagoon its postcard perfect. Thanks again, KD! Be safe always, sir...
Damu gid na salamat! Kumander Daot. That was such a huge rush of nostalgia. Masbateno gid kami so suporta kami an inyo!
Thanks thanks so much! Masbate is so awesome!
thank you for showing us your MASbate TOUR..
I've been waiting daily for yours & Kulas & other fighter boys updates
It is so green and beautiful..!!!
Lovely beach. Great video. Love your narration. Perfect music. Beautiful drone footage.
Good vibes. Thank you for sharing.
Wow! That’s my home province, puhon maimbitaran ta ka sa amo-a, sa Pio v. Corpuz, sa sunod! Amping
Thank you sa tour kumander D. Amping kanunay kumander. God bless po sa inyo.
New subscriber here. Watching from Israel 🇮🇱 but originally from the Philippines 🇵🇭.
nice farm helping those who have sway to drugs but the place looks like a little bit of batanes take care kumander
Thank you for passing by Masbate City. You showed our school and the St. Anthony of Padua Cathedral.
Though I've seen vlogs of the fighter boys and locals. This one made me discover masbate as a beautiful province. The mainstream media is not kind to masbate and thank you for video that shows the good side. Amping Kumander D 😊😊😊
Kumander... shocked.... in Masbate. By the price of beer on a boat (foreshadowing)
#spoileralert
Everywhere you go we see another incredible facet of the Philippines! Who would have thought there would be cattle country there?
Kulas better hurry and take Therine to Masbate before you see all the lighthouses there before they do. Hahaha! 😆😂
@@NickyDunn Hi there, Nicky! Hope you're keeping well.
Masbate is so beautiful! I wanna go there! Thank you, Sir for showcasing the place!
Kumander, that beach was gorgeous. You can tell that the sand is real fine. Beautiful!
The cow is never going to bite you but if you hold you hand with fingers out they will half swallow your hand, licking and sucking-----it is a bit hard to eat beef after a day with those big wet noses and big eyes.. What an enchanting island, not really spoiled by tourism but plenty to see
So Enchanting KD > Thanks for sharing bro'...
You, Kulas and other travel vloggers are lucky. As late as 10 yrs ago, you couldn't do that, travel to the far reaches of the countryside because of peace and order.
Back in 1985, right after HS, I got the travel bug. But I couldn't, lest I like to be a statistics.
Back in 1992, I took a bus ride in Jose Abad Santos going to the end of its line. Norzagaray. Upon arrival, I was noticed by the store owner where I inquired something. He told me i must go home at 4pm as I wouldn't want to be in any trouble later on with Taong Labas (people from the outside).
Good thing it's different now. A lot more free going for all of us.
Amazing. Masbate is beautiful.
nice exploration in Masbate ,thank you Anselm for your great adventure about our country Philippines🇵🇭😘👌🙏😍😊

Hello KD and Masbate!!! I am tuning in to see how Masbate fair against other provinces. One comment said that is more beautiful than Siargao, because it is frequently visited by foreigners and locals alike. I am watching this video of KD because I was impressed by his videos of Benguet Kalinga etc. I wanted to see what Masbate is like in comparison!!thank you KD for taking us along, safe travels. You are Awesome ❤❤❤❤❤ 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏

MASBATE looks like an island of possibilities. Intriguing natural landscapes waiting to be rediscovered. And the Phils' beef producer? How unexpected? Next time, you gotta find an authentic Steak House with hearty menu. ... Thank you for sharing, Anselm/KD.

Hello commander, godbless you! I’m born in Masbate, but left there when I was 13 years old. I went back there when I was 20. Now I’m 67 years old and haven’t been back there yet cause I went to United state te live there. Now I’m retired. I’ve been thinking about going back there to live for the rest of my life.
nice tour bro, the place i was born Masbate city
The best time to visit Masbate is after the holy week in the 1st or 2nd week of April because of the Rodeo Festival. Also include to your list the water falls that water plunges directly to the sea, and Buntod Reef also which is very close from Masbate City.
Those are all part of my plan for next time 🙂
Yeah it will be a big help to boost tourism here in Masbate. Thanks, we support you.
Great video! of Masbate there's so much to see in Masbate by bike 😊
Thank you Kumander for highlighting Masbate , great place. Take care on your travelling...God bless.

Hello, kumander Daot...Cheers Mate.
If you can see a very big island then correct that's Samar. But there are small islands closer to Cataingan like Tagapul-an and Almagro which are part of Samar.
Yes, it was those islands! And I think Maripipi
Lovely beaches
Nature at it's finest. You can't bet having beautiful beaches, all kinds of nature and the mountain views. Plus wonderful people and food.
Lots beautiful resorts in the philippines that not so tourist..
This is unknown to many Filipinos. Thanks again, Kumander!

Rajah Soliman from Gingoog City docks in Masbate halfway through Manila, that was in the 70's❤It used to be 7 days travel from Mindanao to Luzon!

You made me laugh 😆 again, Kumander as you have nothing against a graffiti that describes a paradoxical trait of yours.
