Palina River, Capiz: Cruising With Nature And Kind Fisherfolk

A wide blue-gray river flowing into the horizon, bright green mangroves, and bamboo rafts turning almost golden in the sunlight greeted me and my travel companions as we crossed the bamboo bridge to Palina Greenbelt Ecopark in Roxas, Capiz.

And save for a gentle breeze, all was quiet. In fact, we were the only people that afternoon going on a river cruise across Palina River.
