After our kids finished their Math Intensive Training in Naga City, we (the mothers) brought them to Camsur Watersports Complex at Pili, Camarines Sur for some serious R & R. The water park is a 40-minute ride from Naga City.
The park was made famous by its world-class wakeboarding/kneeboarding where beginners and experts alike can join in the fun. The biggest wakeboard area is right in the middle of the park... Once you registered as a beginner, you will be given the option to kneeboard or to wakeboard. Kneeboarding is easier since it does not require much balancing act and even first-timers may be able to finish one complete trip (which means going around in a circle while ducking some orange bouys).

Beginners who want to wakeboard will be led to the "Beginner's Area" which is much smaller than their main wakeboarding area. Instead of going around in a circle, you only need to cross the small man-made lake from one end to the other. Looks simple and easy but is really hard thing to do judging from the fact that only few of the kids were able to completely cross it without falling or sinking.

Also a big hit with the kids is the Lago del Ray. Also a man-made lake with an obstacle course made of huge and colorful inflatables. It reminds me of the tv show WIPEOUT. I'm pretty sure this was super fun for the kids - they were grinning and laughing the whole time. If you don't want to get wet, boats and kayak are also being rented out. We tried boating and after a few minutes, regretted the decision as it was so hot. It would have been more fun if we swam with the kids instead.

ACCOMMODATIONS: There are several options. There are cottages, cabanas, huts, and container vans. We chose the container vans as each (the family type) can accommodate up to 4 pax. Inside are about 4 beds, a small kitchenette, a bathroom and a small receiving area. Too bad I failed to take pictures of our pretty trailer type home. Pictures are available though at their website: http://www.cwcwake.com/accomodations_rooms .
