Bakhawan Eco Park
this 200 hectares mangrove forest is a multi-awarded destination and a recipient of the Golden Eagle Award in the Asia Pacific for the mangrove reforestation project that boasts of an exceptional nature thrill for eco-tourists and visitors. The eco-park has a small mini park and a recreation area, 1 kilometer eco-walk pathway bridge that wind up into the wide stretch of thick mangrove plantation and ends up unto the beach where one could enjoy a breathtaking grasp of nature, try on kayaking water adventure, or have a picnic to unwind into. At Bakhawan Eco-Park, you can try raw tamilok (shipworms), a kind of mollusk that lives in mangrove roots. The park staff can give tips on where to get cooked tamilok dishes such as grilled tamilok, Kalibo Express (Aklan version of the spicy Bicol Express) or the saucy “Tinuom na Tamilok.”
