First-time in Water Camp

Thanks to the new Cavitex, getting to the historic town of Kawit, Cavite from Makati, the commercial business district of the capital, takes only less than an hour. As soon as we exited the expressway, we immediately saw the residence of Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo, the first and youngest president of the Philippines.

Gen. Aguinaldo’s ancestral home. 

Although I have visited his home twice already, I had to ask our team to stop by and take a few snapshots of the famous window where the Philippine flag was first raised.

A few meters away, the Water Camp signage came into view. We were early and it was a weekday, so there were only a few people at the resort. While waiting for our other colleagues, I took a brief tour of the resort grounds. It wasn’t that huge a tour but a refreshing one, nonetheless.

Glass-walled cottages at Water Camp. 

Our office team had a team building at this resort. We rented a private cottage with spacious grounds which was apt for our activities. But the wind was quite strong that our papers and materials were blown away. But I wouldn’t dwell on our team building activity.

Picnic tents that look awesome!

Water Camp has a wave pool, which is open only weekends, and a giant pool with slide and peripheral narrow waterway, like a river snaking around the giant pool. There was also a playground and other facilities within the pool as well as a cascading man-made miniature falls.

Looks like LA. 

The canteen offers a limited menu though, which I hope the management can still improve on. Water Camp is expanding for more rooms and cottages to cater to more visitors.

Swim on!
