A beach lover’s paradise, Palawan has been capturing the hearts of local and international tourists. Its natural beauty, rich marine life, and lack of infrastructure make the island the best place to relax and be one with nature. CNN is even eyeing Palawan as sailing’s great next destination. When in Palawan, do visit Tubbataha Reef Marine Park and Puerto-Princesa Subterranean River National Park. You can also explore the beautiful beach of El Nido and Coron.

Bangui Wind Farm is one of the gems that you can find in Ilocos Norte. Though swimming at the beach is not advisable, seeing the gigantic windmills alone will satisfy your adventurous soul. These windmills do not just attract tourists, they also support 40 percent of Ilocos Norte’s electricity. Imagine if every place in the country has these windmills. We will have cleaner environment and better life.

Anawangin Cove proves that there is beauty in every disaster. When Mt. Pinatubo let out a good amount of volcanic ash a couple of decades ago, Anawangin Cove became unrecognizable. But Agoho trees started to grow, creating a forest in front of the beach. Now, people have been noticing the beauty of Anawangin and enjoying its tranquil atmosphere. There are no establishments in the area so if you are planning to stay overnight, bring a tent with you.
