Subic

Good thing we didn’t let our apprehensions and uneasiness about braving the rambling waves without life jackets nor admissible swimming skills stop us from sailing to the island. With our boatman’s skillful maneuvers, probably from years of dealing with the angst and tantrums of the seas, we were able to moor safely at its shores with no drama or casualties, with the exception perhaps of our friend who had disgorged back to the ocean all the seafood she had eaten for lunch. It was definitely worth pursuing this trip. 

Subic Beach

Who would have thought that at the tip of Southern Luzon in the overlooked town of Matnog in Sorsogon, mostly known for its ferry terminal connecting the mainland with the nearby island of Samar in the Visayas, lies some pristine beaches, just half an hour’s boat ride from the coast. These aren’t your typical white-sand tropical beaches though, but rather two unspoiled islands with rare pink sandy shores and inviting azure waters that beach lovers would find hard to resist. 

Relax at the Deck of this Gorgeous Infinity Pool and Feel the breeze of the Ocean while sipping on your Favorite drink.

It's easy getting to Dawis Beach. Everyone knows where it is so there's hardly any need for an elaborate instruction. You can hail a pedicab (a tricycle), agree on a fare (P30-50 fair one-way should be reasonable), this would take about 30 minutes or so from the city center. Getting away from the beach is also easy although rides get fewer from dusk.

A beautiful white sand beach in General Santos City

General Santos offers a dynamic city experience with the natural wonders of the Philippines only a few moments out of the center. In Gensan you can enjoy the sea, the surrounding countryside paradise and the clubs, restaurants and amenities of the city.

The Green Beach of General Santos City

Despite being an urban travel destination Gensan has it's roots in agriculture and is the gate way to a trip up the SOCSKSARGEN coast which has beaches and water sport opportunities as well as nature trails and idyllic countryside.

Within the eco-park is Kalajacave, explore the rock formations and take a swim in the water inside the cave. The park also has waterfalls, springs, indigenous plants and campgrounds.

Manila Beach

The Philippines -about 90 million people living on 7000 islands, voted the happiest people on our planet in a 2005 global survey (reference -The Lonely Planet -who else?!). 90% are Christian, mostly Roman Catholic, and 5% are Muslim. As we travel around the country we have seen a distressing number of signs of varied Christian sects including Jehovah’s Witnesses, Mormons and Baptists. 

On the flight here, we also read in the Philippines Star Newspaper that the Philippines is the Capital of Text Messaging! And we have certainly witnessed this everywhere here where people walk along texting while not even looking up! And for our selves, we have never texted a message in our life! When we tell Filipinos this (and maybe when we tell you!) they are shocked! 

Philippines Star

                                                                                                                                                                   

Philippines We flew in to the airport on Mactan Island and explored here later visiting the Allegre Guitar factory, the countryside and the beaches. Cebu City itself we found noisy and dirty and busy. The downtown was depressing to walk about - many children begging, darting in and out of traffic to do so -scary! - people living on the streets, vendors set up everywhere selling everything you can imagine. 

The highlight in Cebu was connecting with our friend Cristine who we met on our GAP Galapagos trip and who is originally from Cebu. We had fun together and explored the Uptown life of Cebu and saw the very modern fancy hotels and shopping malls and the casino - no we did not play. Thank you Cristine for timing your visit here with ours! Hope we connect. 

The Relaxing Cottages in Boragay

It is common nowadays for travel agencies to offer appealing packages for considerable price. This has always been an effective marketing strategy. While there is a common notion to snag the best deal that you can find, it is advisable to step back and rethink.

An affordable package is also a trap that can pass easily as a good deal. Before snagging such deal, inquire about it. You may ask the company about the scope of the package, and the sole reason behind low prices. As a customer, you have the right to gather information about the service you want to purchase. Whenever you encounter seemingly implausible deals, it is time to look the other way. Alternatively, you can report the dealer to the authorities.

Kite Surfing

Since Boracay is a popular destination, fraudsters can use it as easy bait for tourists.Fraudsters can just set up a bogus travel website—complete with top-notch information about Boracay as well as other enticing materials. Since the travel website has a legal payment method, you will probably think that it is for real.

To avoid encountering fake reservations for Boracay hotels, only choose sites that receive good reviews from users. Moreover, do not go for agencies that have low rankings and recommendations. Always bear in mind that a hotel in Boracay will not tie up with agencies that have low rankings.

Bicol’s newfound sheen is largely due to the emergence of Camarines Sur – now fashionably called “Camsur” – as a watersports haven.

Interesting Beach

Some of the best beaches in the Philippines in my opinion are the isolated ones with no road access. iThese can be located by chatting to local fishermen and hiring them to take you there. gree with this ,beach combing, walking the coastal route and discover your own little beach,even sometimes you have to climbs rocks or swim across mouths of rivers hope no salt water crocs. Personally not keen of a guide , stupid as this may sound , but looking for isolated beaches ,just wander about is an added zest by foot or by boat t's not like going into the outbacks . In the little philippine islands it's hard to get lost .I like the sipalay area, to explore further up the sipalay hinoba-an stretch away from the developments ,just following the coastline looks interesting , they seem to have little development

White Sand in the Philippines

The beach is like none I’ve seen before. It’s a bit of a pedicure experience to walk on as it’s made from ground up bleached coral, but the beauty is unparalleled The frat boy laziness rubbed off on me and I only carried my very small point and shoot, so I don’t have many options to play around with zoom and exposure and stuff, but I will capture what I can.

The Paradise of Cebu City

Filipino’s consider Cebu a trendy destination, even capturing the interest and fancy of millions of foreigners yearly.

Water activities like diving, parasailing, and jet skiing, as well as wandering around the gardens are just a few of the many activities visitors enjoy. Shopping malls cover several acres of land. The world famous Carbon Market, reminds one of the shopping districts in Bangkok and Hong Kong.

Boragay Island

Boracay Island was an almost possessively guarded secret so that only a few knew of its existence. Tourism only began to develop in the 1970s, when, it is said, a foreign movie crew accidentally "discovered" this island paradise. Others maintain that it was the German traveler, 'Jens Peters' book, which included rave reviews of Boracay that changed the island’s pace from that of being a quiet secret to eventually being voted as having the best beach in the world. Whichever story is true, it was around this time that Boracay Island slowly ceased to be a private hangout for travelers.
