Enchanted River - hinatuan, Surigao del sur, PHILIPPINES
Why Enchanted? “Cause no one ever reach its bottom.”
Enchanted River is found in Barangay Talisay, Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur. It is called “enchanted” because no one has ever reached its bottom. Many people, including scuba divers, have tried reaching for the bottom but have failed, hence the legend of its bottomless pit. Moreover, locals share that NOBODY has been successful in catching the fish in this river, whether by hand or by spear.
They say its bluish color is a result of its depth and the water clarity changes throughout the day. At around 12:00 nn, the water becomes clearer and even more majestic. Once the bell is rung at noon, the people swimming get out of the water and the fish start appearing to enjoy a feast. Fish feeding is done daily and serves as entertainment most especially for the locals during weekends.
if I lived in a place like this I would constantly cry tears of happiness and then run outside and roll around in the lucious green grass and scream at the sky.

Giola Lagoon in Greece
On the beautiful island of Thassos, Greece lies a secluded lagoon near the village of Astris called Giola. This seaside gem is apparently quite a trek, but for those willing to make the journey, they are rewarded with an incredible natural pool to soak in the gorgeous views of the sea.

After getting up at 5am to spend 9 hours washing dishes and cleaning, there is nothing more refreshing than to head to a beautiful waterfall for a swim. This place near Subic Bay in the Philippines was absolute paradise. Butterflies fluttered and water flowed. Not knowing what lie beneath, we jumped with the falls into the pool of water. It was heaven.
