Best vacation destinations

If I’ll recommend a place as best vacation destination, I will highly vote for my very own country – the Pearl of the Orient, Philippines. It is not because it is my birth place but it is truly one of the greatest Asian destinations. It is the perfect place that offers an exhilarating depth of vacation activities and destinations ranging from the exciting, romantic, historical to the exotic.

Tourists who have explored to the 7,107 islands of the archipelago that comprise the Philippines are more than pleasantly overwhelmed by its beauty and the hospitality of the people. It offers spectacular resorts and beaches that provide many unique qualities and recreational possibilities for any taste and culture. From its natural scenery to its people, the bountiful beauty that the Philippines bring to any traveler is an experience that one will never forget.

Aside from the famous vacation spots like Boracay, Dakak, Subic and Puerto Galera, Philippines makes a perfect paradise treat for those who take pleasure in the summer heat of the sun. It showcases white sand beaches with azure crystal-clear waters, coral reefs and amazingly breath-taking sunsets plus a great place for windsurfing and diving waters in the world like Palawan, Pagudpod and Amanpulo.

With its perfect setting for romantic hideaways and nature tripping like Baguio, Tagaytay, Davao and Zamboanga, it also offers fabulous traditional and beloved Filipino food recipes that is surely enjoyable. Because of many cultures that have influenced Filipino cooking from Malay, Chinese, Spanish, Indian, Mexican, Arab and American cuisines, it turned into something uniquely fresh and delicious and that made Philippines a truly the best vacation destination.

Also found in the Philippines are places that though may not be as luxurious as the usual tourist spots, also offers extra ordinary qualities with low prices and warm local hospitality. Few of these are as follows:

The “Marble Country” – Romblon which is made up of twenty beautiful islands which showcase Mt. Guiting-guiting on Sibuyan Island that serves as a challenge to mountain climbers and its beautiful and yet unspoiled turquoise rivers and waterfalls like Tablas beach and Busay Falls.

The “Sunrise Capital of the Philippines” – Davao Oriental which boast its bonsai forest at Mt. Hamiguitan, breath-taking Tinagong Dagat (Hidden Sea), the plesiosaur-shaped Dinosaur Island and the legendary Cape San Agustin, where St. Francis Xavier celebrated his first mass.
