shoreline
of talisay
Contrary to what most
people believe, Talisay
does have a beautiful
coastline that’s filled
with mangroves and fish
pens. The only problem
is gaining access to
it. One secret I’ve
learned here is to ask,
and you shall receive.
As I was driving by the
road next to the shore,
I was constantly on the
look out for an unfenced
portion of the land where
I could get a clear view
of the shore. I chanced
upon the Congregation of
the Immaculate Heart of
Mary (CICM) Retreat House
in Miramar Subdivision.
Knowing it was private
land, but seeing that it
had an unimpeeded view of
the shore, I quickly dashed
into the retreat house’s
administration office and
asked them if I could
take a picture from their
beautiful garden facing
the sea. They happily
agreed and I was able to
experience a sunset without
obstructions.
