Top 10 Places to Vacation in the Philippines
I & or my wife have traveled to each of these destinations. My goal is to take you around to see the diverse landscapes & natural beauty in the Philippines to help make your next vacation here a great experience.

El Nido I do enjoy the most and I'll explain why. El Nido has the best value for your money from food prices to tours & souveniers. The tours have more options such as more beautiful islands to hop between, super white sand, good night life and the best snorkling views.

So much beauty in this place.

El nido has gorgeous limestone cliffs and jungles like the one we took this picture from.
(why steemit, why must you flip my photographs upsidedown?)

The Filipina Islands can look like paradise in places like Palawan with breathtaking views.
Coron #2

Beautiful sparkling clear water brightened by the sun reflecting off the white sand.

Of the many tours and vacations the Palawan Islands are my top choices.

Sagada is my 3rd choice due to the cold weather mainly, it also has beautiful landscapes and is not crowded. (look at this nerd)
Sagada #3

Thank you steemit for giving me sideways waterfalls.

Banaue is my 4th choice as I love it like Sagada & Baguio, not too crowded, very beautiful with great cool weather and good shopping. Also home of the eighth wonder of the world famous rice terraces & Ifugao Tribe.
Banaue #4

Those rice terraces you might reckognize from a recently released movie.

Ifugao Tribe I donated them $10 for taking a picture with me.

Baguio is known for the colorful homes, gold mines and more.
Baguio #5

Another feature Baguio is visited for is the shopping deals and strawberry farms.

Baguio has many great views even when my ugly mug is in the shot

Another fact about Baguio area is very high in elevation, nearbye we stopped for a picture & snacks. (Reckognize this picture? Its my profile background shot)

We had some family fun in Baguio.

My 6th choice that I want to visit is Cebu, its more crowded and a bit less beautiful than Palawan but a great place to vacation & more beautiful according to my wife.
Cebu #6

My 7th choice is Boracay due to the fun beach night life and many bar girls. (Same reason my wife dislikes it😂)
Boracay #7

My 8th choice is Puerto Princessa known as the city of the living god due to no natural disaster has never touched it. The underground river known as one of the new 7 wonders of the world is also here. It would be higher on my list but its very crowded but like Boracay has alot of nightlife & bar girls everywhere.

Massage is a couple dollars more here than Bataan where you can find it for 200 pesos

#9 for me is Sairgou Islands which you can see many more photos by clicking here. which takes you to my Steemit post about Sairgou. It would be higher on the list but the prices of things are a bit higher, a few less islands and a bit less beautiful everything than in the other islands. Also there is much less friendliness & english speaking Filipinos here than in all areas I have been.

My 10th choice is Camaya Coast near Subic in Bataan. It would be higher on the list as it is pretty and not crowded but very expensive, no white sand, no clear ocean and no nightlife. Honestly it only made the list I think cause it hosted our honeymoon.

El nido palawan is recomended if you are looking to find a much cheaper maldives look alike. Philippines is cheap and most people are able to speak english so you will not find yourself always reaching in your google translator. Just be careful in terrorist in Palawan

Add the friendliness of the people 😉 I have been a few times and only ever hear of bad things, guess my luck with timing has kept me safe.👍

Very Nice post

Thanks 😁

Its my pleasure

Yes indeed a beautiful country, be nice if all shared your pride so there would be less garbage everywhere.

Ikan yang segar dari pantai yang indah, membakar ikan di tepi pantai serta menikmati angin sepoi-sepoi Sepoi dan menyantapnya di sore hari sungguh sayapun ingin merasakan karena ikannya terlihat nikmat😍😁

ya ikan itu sangat enak, terima kasih sudah berkomentar

Sama sama, Iyalah ikan yang baru di tangkap akan terasa manis beda kalau yang udah di es kan😁 dan yang makannya pun akan menjadi manis👍😉

makan ikan manis terdengar manis bagiku! 😂👍

Thanks @dima71 😁

So glad you and your familiy enjoyed the vacations there... From all of them, my favorite destination was Coron!

I did not like it as much, we found trash in the ocean on a tour, less tour options, not as beautiful scuba views and higher prices, El Nido wins for me

Very Nice ...🤤🤤

Thank you 😲👍
