Time: 1200H
From Siete Pecados, we went to our next destination which is called the Twin Peaks.
It is called Twin Peaks because there are two islets. In between those islets are coral reefs with plenty of colorful fishes, big corals, and LOTS of sea urchins.
Your boat will drop you approximately 30- 50 meters from the islets depending on the sea level. It was low tide when we went there, so we have to swim farther because boats were not allowed to get near it as it may destroy the reefs.
When I first got into the water, I was pretty scared because it was so deep I can't see a thing but blue dark water. I just kept on moving until we reached the reefs. The water current made me so tired because we are going against the currents & I have to swim some more.
I enjoyed the view underwater. If I were to compare between Siete Pecados and Twin Peaks, I would say Twin Peaks is better. There were more corals, different types and sizes, more fishes of different species as well. Whats scary though were the group of sea urchins. They were black and has long spikes. Ate Isay told us just to float on the water. Not doing so, will give you a very big chance of catching the urchins' spikes. (OUCH)
Unfortunately, there were no photos (DEAD BATT) :(
But I could really attest that:
Twin Peaks is better than Siete Pecados.

The long swim made us super hungry, so Ate Isay said that we were having lunch at Atwayan beach, I was excited because I saw our viands and they were all delicious, not to mention red crabs, barbecue, ensaladang talong, and grilled fish with fresh fruits as dessert. We headed back to our boat and went to Atwayan beach.
So this is ATWAYAN Beach. Just a small beach perfect for buffet lunch, there are nipa huts there which you could rent for a very affordable price.

Oh, I love dogs :)
