Foreigners SURPRISED by FILIPINO Coastal Town SUBIC BAY - everything is SO DIFFERENT here!

It is our first time in Subic Bay and it looks and feels completely different than we imagined! People even drive here differently! We had a little sneak peak of this Filipino Coastal Town because we went to the Flight School "Laminar Aviation" in Subic which we vlogged here 🎥 • WORLD CLASS Filipino F...

[@mariaangelinabatallones292]

Subic Bay used to be US base so even if it was returned to the Phil. Gov’t Us traffic rules are being followed

[@johnaldwinbianes9833]

Yea

[@TG-gk6fv]

That's cool

[@OanhSchlesinger]

I lived in Subic Bay while it was a US Military Installation. It might be a coastal town now but it once was home to 100s of military service people & their families. A city all its own. Managed & operated by US government. Two years before it was GIVEN to the Philippine government 300 new housing was added to the ones already built. Although I am sad by the actions that transpired leading to the closing; admittedly, it was by far the best base I ever lived.

[@jaydee11.11]

So true!!!

[@aqua_fuschia6178]

I'm actually quite surprised that you just discovered Subic Bay. I must say when you're used to Europe and and America, Subic will suit you really well.

[@blaro05]

It's a former US military base. When the Americans left, the local base administrators made sure to enforce US driving rules to this day. And they're quite strict about it btw.

[@yvonnebondoc8707]

[@MakingithappenVlog]

Sounds great!

[@Cerumentric]

OMG You guys finally discovered my hometown! Cleaner than Manila, and local residents are more disciplined in practically everything. Beautiful beaches, great seafood, clean streets, excellent live music scene, with no equal in Manila, and Olongapo City has a quite interesting history as a former U.S. Navy base that goes beyond the stereotyped former red light districts. If you can do so in the future, climb Mt. Balimpuyo in Sta.Rita and you can enjoy a fantastic view of the whole city and Subic Bay area.

[@OanhSchlesinger]

Nothing wrong with the red light district. The bars on magsaysay was the only place that served under 21. A bunch of high school students made going out on weekends a ritual.

[@Wembambwe]

It's a discipline zone

[@cbtowers4841]

“Offense is the best defense in Manila.” Hahaha! You’ve internalized the driving culture. You’re a Jedi now. No longer a Padawan. 🤣🇵🇭

Nah, the main reason is uneducated, undisciplined drivers, then corrupt and ignorant enforcers.

Subic Bay was a former US Naval Base, a large one outside US mainland so the urban planning was pattern after US community.

[@wavemaker2077]

Mike did say that in the video.

Subic bay resort for sure but Pattaya beach an Phuket thailand way more gorgous I think since my ship afs4 docked all three ports in first lebanon war

[@justlilygrace]

Weee!!! Lighthouse Marina Resort! A 3-star hotel. My old client owns it -- who also has shipping line business. I also remembered that they have sailing packages and sailing events. I stayed there for 3 days and two nights in one of their expensive rooms (for free) and brought home their souvenir glass mug. They have bar and restaurant in there. I can still remember that I was working facing the bay during breakfast, and seeing 2-3 US Navy ships arrived. Subic used to be US Naval based here in PH that's why you see that big stuff like that one.

[@wycee730]

That’s right Subic is like being in another country when it comes to traffic, most drivers from the metro is allergic to it 😂 Take care and enjoy! 🤓👍🏻

Back when in 70's as a kid living off by Clark Air Base in Balibago.. streets were were the names of each state's of U.S. .. we lived on California Street.then moved different house on New York st.. the subdivision there looked and feel like U.S. then!

[@kcindtt718]

There's a a delicious seafood restaurant w/all you can eat w/ reasonable price that I always god to everytime im there in Subic. Own by a retired U.S navy Pinoy. I would recommend it for you to check it out. On the restaurant it also has a good clean amazing massage and salon all together in one place. You can't miss it its nearby the beach.

Welcome to our hometown, Subic! It's just really nice driving around here especially in the morning because of the cool breeze and the views. You can try to go in Pamulaklakin and El Kabayo on your next visit. If you're looking for a hotel, you can check Kamana Sanctuary or Anvaya Cove. Enjoy!

That's what driving should be

The roads are marked for stops. One should not stop at every corner. Thats obstructing traffic.

[@craigmichelson8552]

Just discovered your VLOG and it brought back fond memories. I am retired from the U.S. Navy and was stationed in Subic (Cubi Point) in the early 1970s for three years. What is interesting is that I earned my private pilot’s license there! Can you believe I payed $8 and $12/hr wet (with fuel, total cost) for a Cessna C-150 depending on the age and ownership of the aircraft. I think the C-172s went for $14 and $16! Flew all over Luzon, much different country than today.

[@dearbuddyfriends6666]

Places to visit Subic Bay (SBFZ) 1. Grande Island 2. Boardwalk (Waterfront Road) 3. Spanish Gate 4. Jest Camp 5. Camayan Beach 6. Crownpeak (Cubi) 7. Bat Kingdom 8. And many more There are lot of beaches in Northern part of Zambales...

Haha, that is false advertising... Nothing has been duty free there for many years already, although many places still have "Duty Free" as part of their name......

[@Em-ud6ow]

Love love this video❣️❤️❣️❤️❣️ A little background: My family’s originally from Mindanao (father’s side). However, when my parents separated we moved to Olongapo to be near my mother’s family. My siblings and I lived with our grandmother in Santa Rita when our mother married an American and they moved to the U.S. Soon after we followed and living in Omaha, NE (aka the Midwest). My auntie and her family lived in Subic Base (as they called it back then). and I spent most of my weekends on base. Basically my second home and I had such wonderful memories I will forever cherish.. I love your description of Subic being similar to the suburbs in the U.S. especially the driving! I’m happy to hear it’s still a great place and I look forward to coming home someday- hopefully soon! Best of luck with your pilot license and I look forward to your next Subic adventure‼️ BTW loving your BMW - my husband and I both drive BMWs.

[@rlim6132]

Well, Manila is Wild Wild West when it comes to obeying traffic rules and observing road courtesy.

[@OanhSchlesinger]

Yep. The few times my parents forced me to go along when they traveled off-base we went to Manila & Baguio by victory liner. All I can say about the trip was frightening! Going around the mountains, near the cliffs, passing cars at rapid speed just by one blow of the horn made me close my eyes.

[@tinaq1376]

Try the forest canopy walk with jungle survival training and the El Kabayo trail. Also Zoobic Safari and Ocean Adventure. Enjoy!

[@normandavid3338]

You have to explore more. You just went to one side of SUBIC. Visit the forests and the beach on the other side. It's more beautiful.

Hi, Mike! It’s nice to hear you say the word “makulit” in its proper context.

That place used to be very clean when the US base was there. Could be a nice beach resort if they keep it clean.

Sooo happy you guys went to Subic Bay. My dad used to work there back when it was still under US Navy/Armed Forces. I was born in there. My original hometown!

Ha! Cool. I remember that hospital. It’s where I got my wisdom teeth pulled!

[@gabrielvicente6027]

Mike and Neely, Subic is truly so different now compared to when I was their extracting the volcanic ashes on US Naval Base with a group of construction team call "Seabees". We were called upon to clear the roads, runways and damage buildings. The reason why the road rules there are so much different compared to other place, because they embraced or kept the American's road law to remain in place in the Naval base there. Thanks for sharing the great footage of the area. God bless

WOWWWWW thank you for coming here in Subic !!! Yes everybody here drives with discipline, please come again soon and hopefully I can meet you guys 😉, take care

I was in Subic Bay back in the 80's with the Navy. Other than some newer buildings, still looks the same. There's an island in the middle of the bay called Grande Island. It was only for US Naval Personnel, and was a nice little resort style island you could go to and relax when you were tired of partying out in town. Great diving there too!

[@OanhSchlesinger]

Grande Island was a favorite spot. On July 4, 1985 my dad rented a cabin on the beach. I sat on a lawn chair from sunrise to sunset reading a book the entire weekend, got a nice tan, and enjoyed every minute of it!

Yeah, in the early 70’s, in Subic base, we had the opportunity to go on board the USS CORAL SEA Aircraft carrier and they toured us around the ship ( there was a basketball court beneath) What a huge moving metal engineering. We yearly visited beach resorts and Safari. Do they still have the biggest Duty Free in Asia?

[@michaela.4675]

Oh my goodness! I never would've guessed that my hometown would be featured in your channel. You guys have no idea how excited I am that you guys get to visit and experience it. It made me miss my childhood home even more. Last time I was there was 2018. So many things have changed since then. A lot of those resorts and hotels weren't yet there when I was growing up. And even now I would consider the hotel you've shown to be expensive. I can't recommend any places to see because so much have changed. I'm sure some places I knew have been closed, and there's new businesses being built everyday. And yes, driving there is very different than Manila, and yes, Subic Bay area used to be a US Naval station, so the road design and feel is American. You can still see some buildings (barracks) from that time still standing there. They're converted to hotels and offices. Thanks for sharing my home with the world! I hope you guys come back and really experience it. There's a lot to see and experience.

I served aboard the USS Midway that frequently stopped in Subic Bay. Much has changed since I was there when it was a military base please check out Grande Island in the bay it is beautiful, also I hear there are zip lines near where I did my jungle survival training near cubi point. We have not been back but so so want to go. Until then we can re-visit through you two. Enjoy and Merry Christmas.

[@louieantonio9963]

Wow! Miss that place so much. Lighthouse very memorable for me. So much to explore. You can go to "pamulaklakin" its a running stream from the mountain. That's after the golf course. From there you pass thru el kabayo going to "jest" where there is a mini zoo and jungle survival demo. From there you can go straight to were the huge fruit bats. About a meter long. And then if you want to go for a swim in the beach you go down to all hands or officers beach. That's beside the airport. There is also an island off the mainland its Grande Island. I don't know if they still do but along the Lighthouse road they use to rent out jetskis. They also do dive tours for world War 2 sunken ships.

I do have memories of Subic Bay back in 1985-87 when I was stationed aboard the USS Midway CV-41. I remember crossing the bridge over "Sh*t" river and going into all of the bars in Olongopo City. And going out on a different date each night with a bar girl and drinking a large pitcher of "Mojo" and eating a chicken feet on a stick. Damn! I do missed them days & those were the times.

[@OanhSchlesinger]

My dad’s last tour of duty was in the Philippines from 1985-1988. We made it our home during that time. In fact when the Midway came into port it was a big deal. Off-base night life was crowded. Stay away from the bar girls next time. That’s a good way to spread disease.

Some corrections: There is Subic Town, a municipality in Zambales and there is Subic Bay Freeport Zone. Two different places. The one you visited is inside Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ). It is a special economic zone and freeport area covering portions of Olongapo City and the towns of Subic in Zambales and Morong and Hermosa in Bataan. Outside that SBFZ gate (from the video @ VSNRY) is Olongapo City. SBMA (Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority) is the government agency tasked to run the Freeport zone.
