San Miguel By the Bay

This is one of the favorite places that my children love to go to. It's like an improved version of Baywalk in Roxas Boulevard before and is more family-centered. Large spaces bounded by steel fences and several playgrounds in different spots makes it child-friendly. My children can run around, play and just have fun...


But, of course, the place won't be as much fun if there were no food places around. There are quite a number of restaurants now offering a wide variety of cuisine. There is the famous "Seaside Palutuan" where you get to buy fresh seafood from the market and have them cooked and served the way you like it. You will also find here the American bar and restaurant "Hooters" and several other bars such as Padi's Point and Pier One. Many other restaurants are mushrooming in the area and the last I noticed was of course a "Starbucks" soon to open.

Best thing in the area are the clean and well-maintained restrooms. Security personnel are also very visible everywhere which makes you feel safe and secure. There is also now a tram that services people who want to avoid the long walk of the whole San Miguel by the Bay strip.
