Planning to escape from the daily hustle and bustle of Metro Manila? Wanting to take a break from the normal city routine without venturing too far from home? If yes, then a visit to the Water Camp Resort is one activity that is Two Juanderers-recommended. The resort is an accessible, affordable, and all-season destination that can be squeezed into any Manila-dweller's schedule.
Water Camp Resort is located within Josephine Village in the historic town of Kawit, Cavite. For those not familiar with its history, the place was originally a fishpond in the 1960s and was supposed to be converted into a subdivision. But in a twist of fate, a restaurant named Josephine's was opened which soon became popular all over the metro and the nearby provinces. Over the years, the resort was built to complement the natural landscape of the place and the thriving restaurant. Today, Water Camp is a wholesome all-season oasis for many to enjoy and create fun-filled memories.

The resort offers six different swimming features. There's the Mini Wave Pool that generate artificial waves of up to 3 feet tall. There's the Rave Pool which is the biggest pool and an excellent spot for swim laps.
There's the Children's Interactive Pool where an interactive playground set is available for the youngest guests of the park.
There's also an Adult Pool which is the deepest and is recommended only for able swimmers. Then there's the Dunk Pool which offers thrilling and fun slides.
Lastly, there's the 160-meter Lazy River which is perfect for relaxation and floating away worries and cares.
