To help you with your travel plans in this tropical hub in 2018, we’ve rounded up some of the best and most remarkable places to visit in the Philippines. Even though stepping foot on all the county’s 7,105 islands in one year is nearly an impossible feat, this list of places to visit in the Philippines will at least give you some inspiration and a good start to your adventure.
Top 10 places you MISSED in the Philippines | Travel Vlog 2019
Top 10 Philippines Locations on Trover: http://bit.ly/Philippines_Secret_Locations
After travelling as a foreigner in the Philippines for many months, I’ve been all over the country making travel vlogs. It really is a dream destination, but there’s so much more to see than the beaches!
While I have been island hopping in Coron to visit kayangan lake, twin lagoon, and nacpan beach by el nido in Palawan. My mission was always to find what else was there.
I’ve avoided places like Siargao and Boracay. I’m sure they are some of the most beautiful places in the Philippines, but I’ve always felt they were not the best places to se Filipino culture.
This is a sort of Travel Guide for the Philippines. For people who like to get off the beaten path, and love adventure travel.
These are my top 10 favourite destinations in the Philippines so far.
1. Apo Whang-Od
The last mambabatok doing traditional Kalinga tattoos. Shes 102 years old and a legend in the Philippines. https://youtu.be/Ivn4-GzrETM
2. Blue Soil Hills
The rainbow mountain of the Philippines. There is blue soil just outside of Sagada in Northern Luzon. It’s incredible to see. https://youtu.be/h1rfNMyUG0Q
3. The Hanging Coffins
Echo Valley is a very famous place to see the Hanging coffins. There are many better places however, you just have to ask.
4. The Sunken Cemetery
Just off the coast of Camiguin island there is a Giant Cross standing out in the ocean. Surrounding it is a cemetery sunk by a volcano. Only in the Philippines… https://youtu.be/lPCnUCvh-pg
5. Warship Graveyard of Coron
While many go island hopping in Coron, there is another adventure under the waves. Giant Japanese warships are sunk, and ready to explore for advanced Scuba Divers.
6. Britania Islands
Just below Siargao in Mindanao, in Surigao del Sur, you can find these magnificent islands. Very few people venture this far. https://youtu.be/CgyE2DyVppg
7. Matigol Falls
Easily one of the most amazing waterfalls in the Philippines, and unknown to tourism outside of Mindanao. This waterfall was “The one that got away” https://youtu.be/FDre4ptJPiU
8. Bulingan Falls
A stepping stone Columnar Basalt waterfall on Basilan, Mindanao. There can’t be very many of these on planet earth. https://youtu.be/A8UANZdETHU
9. Torpedo Boats
Illegal logging boats are now being used to shoot thrill seeking tourists up rivers in Northen Samar.
10. Filipino Food.
Food in the Philippines has a bad repuatation. Most of it is quite tasty, even if it doesn’t appeal to the western Palette. Especially the street food! https://youtu.be/PVEeScXdSVU

Welcome to Palawan. Proclaimed nr. 1 island in the world multiple times over the last decade. And for some good reasons.
Puerto Princesa
One way or another, you will end up in Puerto Princesa. Arriving from Manila or Cebu, or leaving at the end of your trip. It’s the biggest city on the island and the gateway to the beautiful beaches and corals. I wouldn’t suggest staying here too long, but if you’re up for something quorky, at least stick around for the ultimate city tour. You’ll never find yourself in a butterfly garden (ok, this is not a butterfly) and in prison, at the same day ever again.
Underground River
Tourist madness or a must see? There are conflicting reports online about the Underground River. Only a daytrip away from Puerto Princesa.
Fact is, this stunning peace of earth was declared as one of the seven wonders of nature in 2011. Yes, she does attract some people. But if you can get passed that, she makes up for a unique experience.
Port Barton
Before arriving in the most popular spot in Palawan, turn left and chill out in Port Barton. By far my favorite of the entire island. Relatively undiscovered, but still with everything your heart desires. Blue lagoons, white beaches, and a room for every budget. The corals are amongst the best I’ve seen in Palawan, and there is a whole lot of under water goodness for you to discover.
El Nido
Continue to the far north of the main island and you’ll end up in El Nido. Worldfamous for her surroundings. The limestone cliffs seem to just tickle the sky, and let’s not even start about the beaches. Small Lagoon definitely is one of the most mesmerizing places I’ve ever visited. But all of this didn’t go unnoticed. In only a few years time a sleepy fishing village, only accessable by dirt road, became the biggest tourism hub in the region. Book your room in time, cause hotels tend to fill up faster than you can blink the eye. And be prepared to share your beaches with some other guests.
Sibaltan
Continuing east you will end up in Sibaltan. A small village, with only a handful of tourists. Note how the resorts here are built with natural material only. We had an amazing time in here two years ago, exploring the surroundings in multiple ways. You can easily enjoy yourself multiple days in a row. Just forget about the rest of the world, put your feet in the air and relax.
Buhay Isla Expedition
Search online for Palawan and one thing will be clear: you MUST get on an expedition between El Nido and Coron. It’s multiple days, living on a boat, sleeping on deserted islands. Exploring the surroundings of Linapacan. Untouched by mass tourism, you will find most of these places all for yourself. From caves to beaches and if you’re ready: just get your own food.
Coron
The northernmost stop in this province is Busuanga. Better known as Coron. A place famous for her WWII shipwrecks. A hotspot for divers from all over the world. Also because of the weird thermocline experience in Baracuda lake. A layer of sweet and salt water make you dive in 36 degrees celcius. As Sander put it: like being back in the uterus. Well, it’s weird but fun! Other activities for sure include island hopping, and if it’s not raining you can climb mount Dalara. If it’s not raining I said…
One of the most beautiful views is this one. Look back on your way to Kayangan lake and make sure you take this iconic picture!
