We first went to Coco Beach. We were told that the entrance fee to the beach was set at PHP50.00 per head. Even though Gumasa Beach is public property, that’s not too bad, right? Wrong. As we were about to shell out a hundred pesos to enter, we were told we cannot just pay for the entrance fee, we also need to rent out cottage for PHP450.00. What the eff?! Why would we need a cottage when we’re only gonna be staying there for a few hours on our beach mat?
Grudgingly, we coughed up the money, again, using the reasoning that we’re already here anyways. As we were about to hand it over, we were told that we again can’t enter since there were no available cottages. If we wanted, we can rent a day room or wait for a couple of hours until a cottage is free.
How many degrees our blood boiled, I cannot even begin to measure.
