February 22, 2010 - One can never miss to visit this monument in Daet Camarines Norte because it holds the distinction of being the first monument erected in honor of the National Hero Jose P. Rizal way back in 1898. It is also known as "Unang Bantayog ni Jose Rizal" were Bantayog Festival coined its name to celebrates the founding of Camarines Norte. As of 2009, it has been 89 years since the province has become independent, since March 3, 1919, when Ambos Camarines (at that time Camarines Norte and Camarines Sur were one province) was split into two.
Before,Daet is known as the first surfing spot in the country especially its long stretch of beach in Bagasbas.But due to lack of government supports it was outdone by Surigao and other surfing sites in the country.Great that just recently, the 2nd Kiteboarding competition was a success drawing back again tourists to visit this province which has so much to offer other than surfing.
