"If a picture paints a thousand words..."
Let these images in and around Manila Bay speak for itself. Dubbed as having the most spectacular sunsets and a cacopony of activities any given day, this place is a must visit while in Manila.
Things to see and do around Manila Bay:
1) Jog, brisk walk or do Aerobics
If you are an early riser, head to Roxas Boulevard or the CCP Complex to get your morning juices going. Jog with the rest of the early risers and fitness buff.
Or if you are lucky, you may chance upon a free aerobics/zumba class at an open parking or a park along Roxas Boulevard or at the CCP Complex.
Now if waking up early is not your thing, but you still want to get a sweat, you can jog or brisk walk around the area just before sundown. Luckily, you will be blessed with a spectacular sunset to marvel at, between short breaks.
2) Watch the dragon boat rowers practice
If exercising early in the morning is not your thing but you still want to see what Manila Bay can offer, head out to Harbour Square's bayside and witness the rower's practicing.
Oh, they sometimes practice late afternoons too. This shot was taken while on board a boat for the sunset dinner cruise.
3) Sit back, relax, and enjoy Manila Bay
Find a space along the Roxas Boulevard boardwalk under those tall coconut trees any time of
the day. Or head to Harbour Square's boardwalk where it gives you an equally strategic view of
Manila Bay with the anchored yachts of Manila Yacht Club as your foreground.
Early mornings and around sunset gives you so much to see, experience and enjoy.
Witness the daily life around the area unfold before your eyes. Cigarette and food vendors,
families having a picnic, lovers on a date, children running around or walking their dogs, a few
people fishing, masseuse for hire, and a lot more.
4) Take the Manila Bay Sunset Dinner Cruise
