There’s something about road trips, karaoke nights, and shared meals that bring a team closer together. Earlier this year, the digital marketing team from Seek Marketing Partners packed their bags and headed to the coast for a much-needed getaway in Patar Beach, Pangasinan.
With 2 nights and 1 full day of laughs, travel, games, and bonding, this trip was more than just a break – it was a reminder of how strong team culture fuels great work. Here’s a glimpse into the memories we made.
Best Moments of Seek Marketing Partners’ Team in Patar Beach
Cape Bolinao & Patar Arrival
Our adventure began at the iconic Cape Bolinao Lighthouse, a picturesque spot overlooking the sea. There, we took photos and captured stunning aerial shots using Ken Sison’s high-end drone, which had a tense moment when a bird tried to attack it mid-flight! We all had a laugh, relieved it made it back safely.
Before hitting the road again, we grabbed a few souvenirs to remember the moment. The drive to Patar Beach took hours, but with team jokes and laughter echoing in the van, the trip felt much shorter.
When we finally reached our transient home near Patar Beach, everyone took a quick breather before diving into dinner prep. Our ever-reliable chef, Jerome, served up crowd favourites: Dinakdakan and Bicol Express. Meanwhile, the rest of the team cranked up the karaoke and poured a few rounds of Alfonso – a bonding tradition we all agreed had to be on the agenda.
Hundred Islands Adventures
We kicked off Day 2 with breakfast courtesy of Jerome, then headed to the Hundred Islands National Park. From the boat ride to the first island, excitement was in the air. We hopped from one scenic island to another, snapping photos and flying the drone once again to capture stunning views from above.
Some of our braver teammates opted for helmet diving, enjoying the underwater scenery and posing for a few unforgettable photos. Our final island stop was made even more memorable by a fresh oyster (talaba) tasting offered by a local – salty, satisfying, and straight from the sea.
Although the zipline was closed due to rain, no one felt short-changed. The entire experience was filled with shared moments, big laughs, and new memories for the books.
Night Games and Goodbyes
After arriving back at our transient house, Jerome once again whipped up dinner while the rest of the team prepared for our final night of games. From guessing games to team-based challenges, we ended the trip in classic Seek Marketing Partners style – fun, loud, and full of energy.
The next morning, we packed up, shared warm goodbyes, and made sure everyone was safely on their way home. While en route, the team called Ms. Paula to let her know we were heading back – and to our delight, she and Dean Braiden suggested a quick meet-up at a nearby mall. There, they surprised us with a generous treat from Zark’s Burgers – the perfect send-off to cap a weekend full of memories.
Conclusion
For Seek Marketing Partners, this trip wasn’t just a beach escape — it was about deepening trust, sharing stories, and celebrating our wins together. These outings keep our digital marketing team connected beyond the screen.
