  • In the Philippines, we have 7,641 islands blessed with the gleaming beauty of the seas, and fascinating mountain peaks ready to captivate anyone’s heart any time of the year.

    The island of Cebu and Palawan in the Visayas are equally enchanting places that recently made it to Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Islands in 2018.
