The Philippines: A Treasure of Beaches and Living Traditions.
The Philippines also offer miles of coastline lined with white sandy beaches washed by clear waters, highly prized by divers for their rich marine life where one can notably observe whale sharks and rays. The Philippines will also delight adventurers thanks to exceptional treks like the one in the spectacular rice terraces of the northern Cordillera or on one of the many volcanoes the country has. All these activities can be arranged by a local agency as part of a tailor-made trip, accompanied by experienced guides, according to your desires and budget.
A Journey to the Heart of an Unknown Paradise
The Philippines is an archipelago of 7,107 paradise islands located at the end of the world, with very little mass tourism. Traveling to the Philippines means living at the pace of a laid-back and friendly people, with a rich and diverse cultural identity. Here, you are far from the crowds of tourists usually found in Southeast Asia. This country offers a unique and authentic experience, where each island reveals its own natural and cultural treasures, allowing travelers to discover breathtaking landscapes and warm hospitality.
Must-see Attractions to Discover
In the north of Palawan, the Bacuit archipelago is a true paradise on earth with its secluded dream beaches and stunning lagoons. Not to be missed: Bacuit Bay, where impressive cliffs contrast with long white sandy beaches lined with palm trees and clear water.
350 km north of Manila, the Banaue rice terraces are located in the heart of the largest island of the Philippines, Luzon, at an altitude of 1300 meters. They were carved over 2000 years ago into the mountains of Ifugao.
The Philippines are part of the Pacific Ring of Fire and are an archipelago composed of many volcanoes, among which is Taal Volcano. It is a must-see on most tours in the Philippines. Along with Mayon Volcano, it is one of the most accessible volcanoes for climbing.
Explore the Philippines Differently
Donsol is a migratory passage for whale sharks from December to May. It is then possible to observe them by diving nearby. You don't need to be equipped with tanks; snorkeling gear is enough. These gentle marine giants leave an unforgettable memory for anyone who approaches them. Magical!
The Chocolate Hills are a series of hills with surprising geological formations since they are cone-shaped and have a similar size. There are a total of 1,268 hills spread over 50 km². Their formation, around two million years ago, is at the heart of many legends in the Philippines.
Located in the province of Surigao del Sur, in Mindanao, Bislig is famous for its bay but also for its natural site of Tinuy-an, whose waterfalls are among the postcard images of the Philippine archipelago.
Inexhaustible Natural Wealth
The Philippines offer a great diversity of landscapes. The white sand beaches are adjacent to those with black sand. Inland, the volcanoes give rise to hot springs or harbor caves, most of which remain unexplored. Karst peaks emerge from the emerald-colored waters of Palawan. The primary forests there are home to a very diverse fauna and flora, with several endemic species, such as the tarsier, a tiny primate.
Meeting Indigenous Tribes
The tribes in the Philippines are numerous, and their way of life is rooted in age-old traditions. They continue to reside in small stilt houses, maintaining a simple lifestyle in harmony with nature. Their livelihood primarily relies on hunting, fishing, and agriculture, practices that have endured through the ages. Additionally, some of these tribes are distinguished by the production of high-quality crafts, showcasing their unique skills and rich cultural heritage. These communities live in symbiosis with their environment, thereby preserving their ancestral customs and traditions.
