20-30 minutes away from Vigan. I can't remember the name of the place, but there's this old dilapidated brick tower they call "baterya" which used to house cannons during the war, near ex-senator Maceda's resthouse. It's also got some kind of port/wharf near it. Oh, good snorkelling there...I had my first experience of using home-made goggles there which I borrowed from the locals. We stayed in a water front property of an old acquaintance. One of the best 4 days of my life, lying on the beach at night watching Hale-Bopp. We slept outside, lulled to sleep by the sea breeze

About the fish, well, the meat is nice. Due to my poor fish identification skills at the time, I can't confirm that it's a parrot fish though. It could be though, why else would they call it isdang loro...hehehe.
