"suso ng dalaga" tagalog for lady's breast

this famous blue lagoon beach, located in ilocos, in the northern part of the philippines, is known to the locals as "suso ng dalaga" beach 'coz of that twin boulders from afar which looked like "boobs". (aint it?)

 

but what's so interesting about this place is, it is so quiet, with clear blue waters and a white powdery sand. really a beach with all it's natural glory! .. the catch? .. you can do anything but plunge into the water! finish a book under the coconut trees, sunbathe 'till you burn, but don't go swim. it's been known that this water's undercurrent is so strong that as soon as the wave hits you, .. then retreats back to the sea, .. you'll go along with it ... and never come back .. even if you're an expert swimmer. as a matter of fact, this beach is a diver's nemesis/waterloo.

 

known too, that "suso ng dalaga" beach always claimed victims to first time visitors. it was our first time, so i warned my kids not to swim nor wade. I shouted on top of my lungs when i saw my son headed down the waters. he teased me by playing more with the in-coming waves! he almost gave me a heart attack! anyway, we left before i lost my voice. we were billeted on the otherside, a few km. down south.

 

as simple as this image may seem, but whenever i see this photo, it always gives me a heart throbbing ..ah..er.. breastpumping feeling.:-))) as was our experience.
