Whenever I fly to the Philippines for a vacation, I make sure to stop by the Manila Ocean Park.  I have been there in July 2009 and then in February the following year.  I love most things about this oceanarium in Manila.  I can’t wait to visit it again.  Next year, maybe?

When inside the Manila Ocean Park, there is one thing you do not want to miss --- Manila Bay’s sunset view which is best captured from the WhiteMoon Bar.  It never fails to give me that jaw-dropping feeling.  The panoramic view of the sunset is simply magnificent reminding you of how beautiful nature is.

Manila Bay’s Sunset: The breathtaking panoramic view from the WhiteMoon Bar, Philippines

We thought of taking a thirty-minute pause, lounge on their cozy poshy sofas and order some drinks so we can appreciate the colorful sunset even more and take better photos.  Unfortunately, all tables were taken.  It was then that we learned that we should have made reservations at least a day earlier.  Oh well, next time then.

WhiteMoon Bar is open until midnight and is strategically located at the 2nd floor of the Manila Ocean Park in Manila, Philippines.  For reservations, dial 0917-8200-320.  

By the way, if you wish to have a chillaxing night at the WhiteMoon Bar, you do not need to pay the Manila Ocean Park entrance fee.  The mall beside the aquariums, the Sunset Quay Bay will lead you to the WhiteMoon Bar.  Do not worry.  The place is filled with roaming guards so in case of confusion, do not hesitate to ask any of them for directions.
