Uba Floating Cottage: A dose of Vitamin Sea

Uba Floating Cottage of Jabonga Agusan del Norte is the best place to visit for escaping the stress cause by the Covid-19 pandemic. 

Floating cottages are not a new idea in terms in making a beach resort stand out among others. With covid-19 pandemic still wrecking havoc the country, people are now eagerly to travel than ever before, so that they can at least escape the stress brought by this current situation. On the other hand, the Philippine government were still cautious to allow any large gathering in one place, which by the way, a trip to a beach will one of those prohibited recreation.

But the people on the a small town in the Province of Agusan del Norte, the Municipality of Jabonga, where owners shows some ingenuity and creativity to at least attract a number of visitors or travelers, both from nearby town and city.

The floating cottages were made up of bamboos, a lot of it, which was then tied together by rope and a nylon. They were being designed not to capsize or sink at all; they are perfectly balance, once it floats to the sea.

But owners of those floating cottages imposed that only certain number of people should be allowed to use it, depending on the size.

How to reach these floating cottages?

Almost all the costal barangay of Municipality of Jabonga, probably already have floating cottages available. You can just inquire any Habonganons you can encounter in the road, and ask them about those things. They will immediately help you and gives you a guide.

Be sure that, you must observe the health protocols being implemented by the resort and also to the local government of Jabonga. Some of the resort will cook a food for you, but with a cost, of course. And the Jabonga Public Market is a great place to look for fresh meat, fish and vegetables and fruits, for your hungry tummy. My advice is that, bring your own food, in that case you are certain what you’re eating.

Since, rainy season is already here, there’s always a chance of rain which could turn the sea murky. The ideal time to visit these floating cottages is when the sun is up, where crystal clear water and fresh breeze will be appreciated.
