My Treetop and All Hands Beach Birthday Adventure in Subic
March 5, 2010After my Momolicious birthday lunch with my hubby and my Max’s birthday dinner with my family, we now come to the adventurous part of my being 32. See, I’ve never felt more alive and happy and so I wanted to honor my 32 years here on Earth by doing something I have never done before. This includes braving rides such as the TREE DROP which I already previewed here on my blog, CANOPY RIDE and INTERACTIVE FREE FALL at Treetop Adventure in Subic. We were supposed to do Superman and Silver Surfer too. But the Canopy ride took a lot of time and Super Man ride was undergoing maintenance when we went there on my birthday weekend last Feb. 21, 2010. So we’ll just do the other 2 dangerous rides another time, like say, this coming weekend, (which is in a few hours from now!) when we go to Subic again with my hubby and girlfriend, Ninette this time. ^_^ Before I leave, I just want to share this travelogue first.
That day, Feb. 21, 2010, started smoothly. We went out of my parents’ house in San Mateo Rizal at about 6:00 am that Sunday morning. Thanks to SCTEX, by 8:00, we were already in Subic! We were all feeling quite hungry by then so breakfast at Jollibee was in order. It took quite a while for our orders to be served. There were so many people there that day. I guess it wa sbecause Feb. 22 was declared holiday for students and lo and behold — many of these students (and their parents) decidedto take a day trip to Subic that same day. After our Jollibee family breakfast, we headed to Treetop Adventure and had the rides of our lives! Come and see!
This is Tree Top Adventure, a park where the beauty of unspoiled forest presents itself as a perfect backdrop for your holiday activity.
We invite you to experience nature tripping from a breathtaking view – from 100 feet above the ground! With jungle trails comprised of platforms nestled on branches, suspension bridges, and the world’s first motorized canopy tour, what we offer is more than just the peak of excitement.
Learn new things; with fresh eyes, we encourage you to explore. Find inner peace as you go through a natural sanctuary hidden by foliage. Or at the very least, conquer your fear of heights. Tree Top Adventure offers each one a personal journey, with unforgettable memories as dense as the forest that you won’t help but feel closer to the ones you take this most marvelous trip with.

After all those dizzying rides, we headed to the beach!!!

The beach in itself wasn’t really that bad. We just had to wear aqua shoes while in the water because the sea bed was rocky. But that’s okay. As long as the water was clear and clean, I was fine with it. ^_^

I’m a bit of a coward too, Manila Girl! But I try to overcome my fears as much as I can. You can do it too! The tree drop is just 2 seconds! And yes, it will make you look younger coz being able to conquer that kind of fear will bring you inner bliss which exudes into a kind of outer joyful beauty. =)
Posted by sexynomad at March 12, 2010, 11:03 pmnice! but bitin yung video mo of the free fall.
Posted by carla at March 20, 2010, 1:19 pmHi Carla, I know right? Pero while I was doing the free fall, parang forever and pakiramdam. It was so scary kasi! Tapos when I saw the video, nyek, 2 seconds lang pala yun?! Hahaha!
hi! tnx 4 the tip on the allhands beach being rocky. will sure bring aqua shoes when we go there this may. btw, do they allow cooking (ex. rice) in the overnight cottages?
tnx, tnx, tnx!
Hi Lorna, you’re welcome.
About the cooking, we didn’t spend overnight there so I’m not sure. I didn’t see anyone cooking at that time. It would be best to call them.
I did see someone bring a grill though over at Dungaree beach which is just a few meters away from All Hands beach.
Enjoy!
Hi, we’re planning to go to all hands beach and tree top. Thanks for your review! Do you have the all hands beach’s email add?
and strict ba cla sa head count sa cottage? Anong cottage yung nirent nyo? Thanks!
Hi william!
I just included all the contact info I have of All Hands beach on this post. I’m sorry but I don’t have their email address.
Yopu can also check their sister resort Dungaree beach. I placed the contact info on my blog post. here’s the link:

Posted by sexynomad at April 30, 2010, 2:01 amWilliam, P.S.
We didn’t rent any cottage nga pala. We just stayed for a few hours after our Treetop Adventure para makakain at makapag cool down sa dagat.
I don’t think they’re strict sa head count per cottage.
i find this very helpful… thanks thanks!

Looks like you had an amazing 32nd birthday! I’d love to try the adventure stuff at Subic some time. I hope I’ll have the guts, I’m kind of a coward. Haha.
By the way I’m amazed that you and your companions still looked very photogenic even when falling from a treetop!!
