Philippines - is a stretch of islands in the Pacific where everyone can go beachcombing, surfing and diving. The islands are grouped into Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
Major airlines have direct flights from major capitals to Manila in the Luzon islands group, Cebu in the Visayas islands or Davao in Mindanao group of islands.
World-class vacation spots are located in the Cebu island, Boracay island, Panglao island and Palawan group of islands.
Equally beautiful but unspoiled are these vacation spots: in Mindanao, there is Siargao islands which is a haven for surfers, Baliangao beaches in Misamis Occidental and Sarangani beaches. In Luzon, there is Pagudpud beaches in Ilocos Norte up north and Puerto Galera beaches down south while in the Visayas, Eastern Visayas which is comprised of the islands of Biliran, Leyte and Samar have the most unspoiled beaches with Limasawa island in Southern Leyte as the best dive spot and Calicoan island in Eastern Samar as the best surf site in the region.
The Philippines Islands are connected through road-ferry networks. There are five major local airlines operating in the entire archipelago between Luzon-Visayas-Mindanao routes with major hubs in the cities of Manila (Luzon), Cebu (Visayas) and Davao (Mindanao.
There are ferry services providing inter-island transportation which is actually like cruises since these ferries are hopping city-by-city up to its final destination back and forth. It’s actually more enjoying to travel by sea since you will have the opportunity to see the islands along the way. It’s a real site seeing-and-boat trip-in-one at a very low price. The ferry service is what the locals patronize most because it is less expensive. Aside from regular airconditioned rooms, Super Ferry offers such amenities in most of their vessels as suite rooms, swimming pool, bar and fine dining.
So, come and enjoy these islands!
