Kadagatan Festival 2012

Kadagatan Festival 

is a thanksgiving for the blessings and bounty during fish expedition and fish farming of the locals.

In Kauswagan, Lanao del Norte they celebrate it every April 25 :)

Its one of the unique festivals in the Philippines cause cultural dancers showcase their artistry and 

balance while performing on the fabricated bamboo raft called "gakit" .

there are 5 bamboo rafts but these two "gakit" i liked the most! :)

me and my boyfriend went to Kauswagan around 11:30am,

we were late so we haven't seen the street dancing and the performance on the bamboo raft :/
