Top 10 Vacation Destinations in the Philippines

avatar

Take a look back 4 years ago at my article

Sharing this as #5 Baguio is our location choice for HWS

I am editing all of the original writing and hope you enjoy

#1 EL NIDO

I listed El Nido as my top destination as it is so beautiful and the locals are very polite as they thrive on tourism you are treated like royalty yet at a fraction of the cost in other countries.

I took a few different day tours that include a fresh cooked seafood, vegetable and rice meal while island hopping, snorkling and kayaking through little private islands, coves and caves all in paradise. 4 Years ago these tours were $25 per person, hopefully soon I will tell you how much inflation has changed this.

This first photo I took from our hotel balcony which was on the beach and was just a bit more than the day tour cost.

Here is a part of our tour we are kayaking for an extra charge there are people renting them along the way for $2-3 each.

#2 CORON

Beautiful sparkling clear water brightened by the sun reflecting off the white sand. Very similar to El Nido yet #2 as prices are a bit higher, harder to get things and more isolated with much fewer people.

The scenery is very much similar to El Nido as Coron is just at the North end of the Palawan Islands.

#3 SAGADA

As you can see from this shot of a waterfall in Sagada I took from a tour the area has many natural resources and beautiful secrets to find.

#4 BANAUE

Banaue made the list as it is the highest elevation in the Philippines and very nice cool weather with much to see from the natural beauty I mean look at Thanos after he destroyed much of the universe he sits down in the Banaue rice terraces.
20171222_070757.jpg
Those rice terraces you might reckognize from a recently released movie yet I took this picture.

Here is the Movie Scene


Ifugao Tribe members sitting here, I donated them $10 for taking this picture and sitting with them for a minute.

#5 BAGUIO

This is where we plan to park HWS my Project, they have a couple of Fiber networks competing giving a great rate of $200 monthly for 1,000 Mbps service so giving us a great head start on discounted services.

Baguio is #5 and would be much higher as the shopping here is amazing with the best prices and selection for produce and much more.

20171224_135514.jpg
So much fresh produce yet the most famous thing the area is known for is strawberries.
20171224_121621.jpg
Somewhere between Banaue and Baguio is this sign we took a family photo at.
20171224_101323.jpg
We might have rented some costume wear to take some family pictures.

#6 CEBU

I actuall have not been to this destination yet have heard enough from my wife and friends to believe it made #6 on the list.

#6 BORACAY

Boracay made #6 as it has awesome beaches, people and a night life you won't soon forget.

#8 PUERTO PRINCESSA

The city touched by God, it is said no natural disaster has hit this city ever. It has the amazing underground river and much more.

This is a $7 massage, just a few dollars more at the beach is not bad.

#9 SIARGAO

This perticular crab was caught and brought to my table just after ordering as they were out of crab when I ordered so we switched my fish order to this huge crab.
20180519_162435.jpg
We got up too late to surf as the tide was very low
20180519_172732.jpg
Low tide indeed

These horses are right on the beach also

So many crabs on the beach here

#10 CAMAYA COAST

This vacation spot is a bit over priced and not as beautiful, just #10 due to it being the host of our honeymoon and many great memories were made here.

I love nature and landscapes and really the ones you show us in your post are dreamy. It is very good to know that the Philippines is an excellent tourist destination, the beaches without really beautiful and the best thing you mention is that it is cheaper than in other localities. And tell me something about the security there? Because that's also important to consider.

The security is very similar to Australia where guns are illegal yet a bit harsh on criminals as the president ordered police to kill any dealers that resist arrest or attempt to run. I felt pretty safe everywhere I have gone yet I also stay out of dangerous areas.

Sure, it's very important to know that. I live in Venezuela, and here insecurity is high and no matter where we are, the sense of alertness is active. That is why it is important to know a little about the level of insecurity in the places where we go because although it is true that we must be careful, it is good to choose places where we can relax a bit and enjoy ourselves in peace. Thank you for your information.
