Start the day exploring the coastal heritage of Agoo with a visit to Agoo Basilica (Nuestra Señora del Rosario Church) to admire its historic architecture and local religious artifacts, then stroll the nearby Agoo Riverfront Boardwalk for fresh sea air and early-morning photo opportunities. Continue to the nearby Agoo Public Market for a short taste-tour of local snacks and produce-students can sample native delicacies like tupig and longganisang La Union-before boarding transport to Poro Point for midday activities.
After sampling Agoo's morning flavors, head to San Fernando City Baywalk for a leisurely walk and group photos, then continue to La Union Botanical Garden for a short guided nature trail highlighting native plants and a picnic-style lunch on the grounds. Late afternoon, transfer to Poro Point Lighthouse for a coastal tour of the promontory, enjoy cliffside views and interpretive talks about the area's maritime history before checking in at Thunderbird Resort Poro Point for sunset and rest.
As dusk settles, enjoy a relaxed beachfront dinner at Flotsam and Jetsam Beach Club where students can savor grilled seafood and local craft beverages while listening to acoustic music. After dinner, take a guided moonlit walk along the Poro Point Promenade with brief stargazing and a short talk about local folklore and maritime history before returning to Thunderbird Resort Poro Point for an optional evening briefing and lights-out.
Begin the morning with a guided birdwatching walk through the manicured grounds of Thunderbird Resort Poro Point, where students can spot coastal and migratory species while learning about local ecology from a resident naturalist. Afterward, take a short coach transfer to Candon Point Viewdeck for panoramic photos and a brief interpretive talk about the peninsula's geology, followed by a light seaside brunch at Resort Café Terrace featuring local fruit, huevos, and freshly brewed coffee before packing and checkout.
After check-out, visit the nearby Poro Point Freeport Park for a guided coastal ecology walk and hands-on beach clean-up activity that teaches waste management and marine conservation. Continue to San Fernando Heritage Trail for a short cultural tour featuring public murals and the historic Gabriela Silang Monument, then enjoy a farewell group lunch at Harborview Café overlooking the bay before boarding transport for the return trip.
As night falls, gather the group for a cultural-culinary session at La Union Night Bazaar where students can sample regional street foods like bagnet and mais con hielo while browsing local artisan stalls; a short cooking demo by a local vendor gives hands-on insight into Ilocano flavors. Finish with a community concert at Poro Point Open-Air Pavilion featuring student reflections and a local acoustic group, followed by a calm lantern-release on the shoreline to mark the trip's close before boarding for the return journey.
