Peaceful morning on the waterfront in Dumaguete.
Sometimes the noise on the highway along the seawall can be a bit much but this really is a special place to relax and walk in the mornings.
There is no beach but the view is great.
Good place to talk a walk.
Big shade trees !
The traffic keeps building as the day progresses. Take care when crossing the street because these tricycles seem to appear out of mid air.
Tricycles are taxis and will take you anywhere in town for a few pesos.
Coconut trees !
The pier in the distant in this picture is where the boats to Siquijor Island depart from. There are also 3 or 4 shipping lines that take vehicles to Mindanao. Most of the traffic for Cebu leaves from a port about 15 k from Dumaguete up the coast in San Jose.
The Maayo ferries make the trip from Tampi San Jose, Negros to Bato, Cebu quickly and efficiently. It takes about a half hour to get across.

The traffic keeps building as the day progresses. Take care when crossing the street because these tricycles seem to appear out of mid air. So true DP, quite a few foreigners have been hit.
The trees are acacia trees, beautiful and very shady. The boulevard is the best part of Dumaguete especially early am. I am often there for breakfast. Many restaurants to choose from.
Unfortunately later the area is frequented by some rather thirsty foreigners with their extremely young girl friends which does not fit in so well. Further the persistence of the street vendors if one is sitting outside becomes unbearable.
As you pointed out DP early morning is perfect to enjoy.
