Panabo City Mariculture Park

We spent Christmas week in my husband's hometown, Panabo City. He regularly jogs on the road beside what they call the Sea Wall. The second time I joined him, I lugged along my dSLR. I wanted to capture the sunrise but was not lucky enough to get a glimpse of it. So I just took photos of the views before our eyes. Living in the mountains since birth, I rarely get to see the scenes I saw that day. There was a storm the day before (the reason our Mati daytrip plan was cancelled) which probably explains why the sea and the clouds look the way they are on these photos.

Interesting facts about Panabo City
Panabo City, located between the cities of Davao and Tagum is home to the P2.7 billion Davao International Container Terminal (DITC) which exports fresh cavendish bananas to various parts of the world.

The Panabo City Mariculture Park, which has been identified as one of the most developed in the country, produces class-A quality milkfish (bangus). Aside from milkfish, the mariculture park grows siganid (danggit), groupers (lapu-lapu), saline tilapia, sea bass, snappers, and abalones as secondary produce. - See more at: http://www.thefishsite.com/fishnews/11153/us-delegation-visits-panabo-mariculture-park/#sthash.e0J6SXIf.dpuf
