PHILIPPINES

Minesview Park – Mines View Park is an overlook park on the northeastern outskirts of Baguio in the Philippines. It is five kilometers away from the Heart of Baguio, passing through the Botanical Garden, the Mansion House, Wright Park, and the Pacdal Circle.

Sagada ( Mountain Province)

Sagada is known for its scenic mountain valleys, rice fields, refreshing waterfalls, limestone caves, and sea of clouds. Sagada is the closest thing the Philippines has to a Southeast Asian backpacker hub, yet it's possible to find tranquillity along its many hiking trails and get your adrenalin pumping on adventures in the depths of its caves .

Anawangin Cove – is a crescent shaped cove with a pristine white sand beach. What makes the place unique is the unusual riddle of tall pine trees flourishing around its vicinity. The cove’s relative isolation has kept it free from development, save for a few huts and deep wells. Anawangin Cove is just one of the many ash-filled nooks and crannies of San Antonio, but it’s the one that started the tourism wave in the area mainly because it’s the nearest and the most accessible.

Anawangin is not an island; it is part of mainland Luzon. However, it is tucked away behind the mountains that getting there by land requires hours of trekking over an almost bare landscape. The easiest way to reach it is by boat, and the closest major settlement is Brgy. Pundaquit.

Nacpan beach is said to be the most beautiful beach around El Nido town. With Calitang Beach, they are known as El Nido’s Twin Beaches. Nacpan Beach is one of the most beautiful stretches of sand in the Philippines with swaying coconut palms, and clear aqua water.

To get to Nacpan Beach via El Nido Tour E, by renting a motorbike or hiring a tricycle. It will take you from 45 minutes to 1 hour to get there. You can also organise and book a round trip from El Nido to Nacpan Beach thanks to the Nacpan Beach Shuttle Service.

Tinipak River in Tanay Rizal

River flowing through mountainous terrain with rapids & a cave with a natural swimming pool.

Tinipak River is located at Mt. Daraitan in Tanay, Rizal, around 2-3 hours drive from Manila. There is so much diversity with beautiful waterfalls like Batlag Falls, caves such as Calinawan Cave, unusual rock formations such as Nagpatong Rock and of course beautiful rivers such as Tinipak River, the subject of this post.

To get to Tinipak River is quite an adventure. After about a 2-3 hour drive from Manila, you end up in Barangay Daraitan and the Barangay Hall. There is ample signage on the main highway and the locals are quite helpful in helping you find the Barangay Hall. Once at the Barangay Hall, you need to register and you are then assigned a guide. From there you are provided with some essentials that are needed such as a headlamp for when you go caving. You are also able to buy other accessories such as gloves, which I do recommend due to the rough nature of the rocks.

Puerto Princesa Underground River

The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park is a protected area of the Philippines located about 80 kilometres (50 mi) north of the city centre of Puerto Princesa, Palawan. The national park is located in the Saint Paul Mountain Range on the western coast of the island. It is bordered by St. Paul Bay to the north and the Babuyan River to the east. The entrance to the subterranean river is a short hike or boat ride from the town Sabang.

Hidden Beach –

The Hidden Beach hides behind tall natural stone walls, with only a tiny break from which to enter and exit. It’s perfect for swimming, chillaxing, and picture-taking! If these are not enough to convince you it’s amazing, we don’t know what else will. If you’re looking for a beach, this is the best tourist spot in Luzon to see.

Big Lagoon is the second stop of El Nido Island Hopping Tour A, right after Small Lagoon. Just like any other lagoons in Palawan, Big Lagoon is dotted with dark limestone cliffs. Enjoy the view! Don’t miss the Big and Small Lagoons as these are the best tourist spots in El Nido.
