Scattered like precious gems across the western Pacific, the Philippines is an archipelago of over 7,000 islands, each offering its own slice of paradise. From the lively streets of the captial Manila to the crystal-clear waters of Palawan and Boracay, the country (about twice the size of the UK) enchants with its warm hospitality, culture and beauty.
Dive into coral-rich reefs, trek through lush rice terraces in Banaue, or explore the colonial charm of Vigan. Whether you're island-hopping in the Visayas or watching the sun rise over Mayon Volcano, the Philippines offers a rich tapestry of adventure, history, and relaxation, all wrapped in the warmth of Filipino smiles.
