Subic is known as a former home of one of the largest US military facilities outside of the US mainland and it was called as Subic Bay Naval Base. Aside from that, Subic, being located along the northern coast of Subic Bay, it is also known as a docking station of luxurious Yacht and as well as well-known cruising ship loaded with tourists from different parts of the continents. And guess what? I am one happy gal to experience such luxurious sunset viewing while on a grand yacht with the Subic Sailing Club, indeed, it was an all pleasure and leisure sailing with a 360-degree beautiful backdrop.

Aside from the luxurious sailing around Subic Bay where the mountain meets the sea, it was a wonderful experience. Watching the sun sets became more romantic and bizarre! The view was amazing and splendid that even my hair dances to the rhythm of the wind.
