Philippines Itinerary

The Philippines is a massive group of islands, 7,641 to be exact, making it one of the largest archipelagos in the world.  It’s no surprise that it’s known for its gorgeous beaches.  Everything about a trip here will be centered around sun, sand and sea.  Boating and beaching should be a priority but don’t forget the majestic undersea world which is definitely worth the venture and some of the inland wonders like the waterfalls and volcanoes.

A lot of Philippine’s islands are pretty remote but there is a good network of flights and ferries to allow for some island hopping.  Be prepared for some arduous journeys to get to some of the them though.  All of these islands are all truly beautiful so even if you can only make it to 1-2 it’s well worth the trip.    

  • Boracay – for the nightlife
  • Cebu –> Mactan Island – for the scuba diving & water sports
  • Bantayan Island –> Silion & Hilantagaan Island – for the white sand beaches
  • Siquijor – for waterfalls, banyan trees & healers
  • Bohol – for scuba diving & the Chocolate Hills
  • Camiguin Island – for the volcanoes & White Island
  • Palawan – for secluded beaches, hidden lagoons & over the water bungalows at the El Nido Resorts
  • The Farm at San Benito – for a wellness retreat
