If correct spot, used to be the di-parabolic antennas. Ie., a pair of parabolic curved antennas for transmitting radio signals. One for sending; the other for receiving. The road goes all the way to Matabungkay Beach.(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/01/16/2u3uve3u.jpg)

Yes, silent waters.Just one day in my life in the mid '70s :) ;)
Brings back memories of Matabungkay Beach. Went there one Sunday with an FTC cigarette salesman delivering cigarettes to his suki. Along the way, dropped by Taal Vista Lodge and had a breathtakingly scenic view of the Taal Volcano.
Most of the time, Matabungkay Beach is safe to swim. But, occasionally, the water can be dangerous. A treacherous undertow may occur. :) ;)

If you happen to visit the Philippines, one tourist spot you must not miss is the Taal Volcano. The scenic spot is at Taal Vista Lodge. The best time to go there is during a very foggy morning. You will be begging the fog to open up so you can see the view. If the fog should pity you, it will open up but only for a short moment. Then, it closes and that’s the end of it.
If the fog doesn’t open up, then tough luck. You have to come back another day.
I mean, on a clear, sunny day, you can see that it is really very beautiful. But you will be depriving yourself of the excitement of begging.
It’s like the difference between looking at a very beautiful woman that’s already naked and looking at her strip teasing. I prefer the latter. There’s that element of torture- that excite of begging, “Please remove your …..”. And when she has removed everything, it will only be for a short moment. Then, she runs backstage.
If she doesn’t appear, then tough luck. You have to come back another day.
No wait. The similarity does not end there. It is not only very beautiful. It is also very peaceful, very calm, very serene, etc., etc., etc. But underneath it is a smouldering lava. It is really a fiery volcano that could erupt anytime and claim 600 lives or more. Yes, indeed! It is no different from a woman. Of course, there are exceptions.
Why do people want to live nearby? Because the soil is very fertile due to the volcanic ash that is rich in phosphates. Yes, fertile like a woman.
In spite of her mercurial behaviour, I still prefer her to him. I must admit that it is a lot more fun to be with her than with him. Until she erupts. Then, I’d better run for my life.

Asking me? ??? If yes, while at work, they'll be sleeping inside dongas in the minesite.
When I was working in Koolan Island, my office was a donga located on top of the quarry overlooking the pit below. Had a 360-degree breath-taking view of the sea and surrounding islets. As a single staff member, accommodation was a motel-type room sleeping solo in the bachelor’s quarter – also a donga. When got married, lived in a 2-bedroom unit. There were also houses for staff members with children.
For in-depth info, best to ask people concerned as that was 30+ yrs ago.
Our Dongas provide multi-purpose site-office and accommodation solutions for all types of industries. Whether operating in the remotest outback or in the biggest city, workers in all sectors, from mining and construction to tourism and government, need safe and reliable work-site buildings. Ausco's dongas tick all the boxes. Our dongas are transportable modular buildings, made with the highest standard of materials and design, and are practical for accommodating almost any site need - whether temporary or permanent. A quality donga can be delivered and installed quickly at an economic price, with personalized or custom specifications. The versatile features of portable dongas make them a preferred solution for experienced decision-makers in all sectors, whether used in modular housing or for work buildings such as site offices.
