Sail roughly a hundred nautical miles west-northwest of Manila and you’ll arrive at the fishing island of Pundaquit in San Antonio, Zambales. What sets Pundaquit apart from other beaches in the neighborhood is its calm and clean waters—this despite facing the open ocean of the China Sea. The place also serves as a jumping point to other notable visits in Zambales such as the coves of Nagsasa and Anawangin. While at it, Pundaquit also lets you experience the quaint lifestyle by offering fishing activities on your way to these nearby coves.

Steer northeast of Iloilo and discover another breathtaking remote group of islands: the Islas de Gigantes. Legends tell that giants once inhabited the island chain as oversized coffins were discovered at the Bakwitan Cave, each containing gigantic sets of human bones. But giants or no, Islas de Gigantes definitely have gigantic adventures waiting in store for you. From magnificent islands, pristine white sand beaches, jagged rock formations to mystical caves, you’ve got something exciting to explore at the islands of giants.
