General Nakar Landscape Photography Adventure (2021)
INTRODUCTION
Join this landscape photography adventure down to the uncharted coastal town of General Nakar, Quezon Province. This quiet town offers fresh and unique coastal rocks lined along the rugged coast. We will take a monster jeep to reach Masanga Cove in Barangay Canaway. This is a more than two-hour rough ride traversing through mountains and crossing numerous rivers.
