Wakeboarding at the
CamSur Watersports Complex (CWC) has long been a popular watersports activity in the
Bicol Region. From Donsol, Sorsogon, we drove all the way to Pili,
Camarines Sur, where CWC is located, right in the compound of the
Camarines Sur Provincial Capitol.
As soon as we got there, we checked-in at the
Villa del Rey Cabanas.

There are several options for accommodation at CWC, from the high end
Villa del Rey Villas (Php6250) and
Mansion Suites (from Php2700 to Php5000), to
Wood Cabins (from Php2750 to Php3750),
Dwell Homes (Php3750) and
Cabanas (Php1700), to the lower end
Containers (Php1500),
Tiki Huts (Php1100) and
EcoVillage (as low as Php350).
Since it was getting dark, we went straight to
CWC Cable Park to start wakeboarding. There are several options for everyone's wakeboarding capabilities, including a beginners cable for first timers, and a cable where many pros from around the world train, owing the the great facilities and very affordable rates.
Rates begin at Php125 for the hourly rate during the day, and Php175 at night. There is also a half day rate of Php370 (8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. or 1 to 5 p.m.), whole day rate of Php610 (8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.), and night rate of Php500 (5 to 9 p.m.). Equipment rental (lifevest and helmet) is Php40 per hour, Php90 half day or Php140 whole day with a Php500 deposit.
I tried wakeboarding at the beginner's cable. And after an hour trying, I'm definitely sure I'll the leave the pro cables to the pros for now!
How to get to CWC
Take a flight to Naga Airport which is actually in Pili, Camarines Sur and take public transportation from them. Or you can take a bus to Pili and get off right at the gate of the Camarines Sur Provincial Capitol.
