With this convenient tour, you’ll enjoy hassle-free roundtrip transfers from Manila City and the guidance of an experienced coordinator throughout your journey. This tour also includes boat transfers, all environmental and entrance fees, and a personalized magnet souvenir to commemorate your adventure.
Your island adventure begins with an early morning pickup from your designated location in Manila City. You can rest during the comfortable drive north to Pangasinan Province.
Afterward, you'll reach the Alaminos Arch, which serves as the main gateway to Hundred Islands National Park. You can take in the fresh morning air and capture photos at the welcome arch. From there, your driver will take you to the port so you can board your boat for island hopping.
Situated in the Hundred Island National Park, these 123 scattered islets in the Lingayen Gulf boast millions of years of geological history. From white sand beaches to gorgeous rock cliffs, each islet tells its own story.
As you cruise away from the port with the morning sun illuminating the seascape, you'll be surrounded by the breathtaking sight of over a hundred islands rising from the blue waters.
Throughout your boat tour, you'll visit several captivating islets, such as Governor's Island, which is famous for appearing on Philippine reality TV. You can swim and lounge at the soft white sand beach, which is perfect for relaxing or taking photos.
Pilgrimage Island is a quiet place dedicated to faith and prayer. You'll find the Stations of the Cross set up along the paths, and a large statue of Christ that stands out against the sky. There are also other religious statues around the island. Even if you're not religious, it's a peaceful spot to take a break from the more active islands and enjoy some quiet time.
The iconic Marcos Island is where you'll get your adrenaline fix. The islet has caves you can explore, hidden coves to discover, and natural rock pools. If you're brave enough, there's a cliff where you can jump straight into the deep water. You can also hike up to the top for an amazing view of all the surrounding islands and the gulf. The climb is short but totally worth it.
Among all the islets, Quezon Island has the most facilities, with small stores and places to buy food. But what makes this islet special is the snorkeling. The waters here are teeming with colorful fish and abundant coral reefs. Even if you just swim without snorkeling, the water is so clear you can still see the fish below.
Children's Island gets its name because the water here is super shallow and calm, making it perfect for kids to play safely. You can walk far from the shore, and the water will still only be waist-deep. The gentle waves make it one of the safest swimming spots in the park. Adults love it too because they can simply float around without worrying about strong currents.
On the other hand, Lopez Island remains beautifully untouched and pristine. It's pure nature at its finest. You'll find a white sand beach with trees providing shade and seabirds flying around. It's the perfect escape if you want a quieter, more natural experience away from the crowds.
The lovely Cuenco Island gives you a bit of everything. There's a nice beach for swimming and lounging in the sun. Its main attraction is a cave with impressive rock formations, making it perfect for exploration and photography. The island also has a jumping platform where you can dive into the water if you're feeling adventurous. It's a great mix of relaxation and fun activities.
Around midday, you can treat yourself to a hearty lunch at one of the islets. You can purchase food from available vendors on the islands or bring your own prepared meals. You can enjoy your lunch while taking in the beautiful coastal scenery and recharging for the afternoon ahead.
Upon arriving back at the port, you'll have time to use the facilities to wash up and freshen up after your day in the sun and saltwater. With everyone refreshed and ready, you'll begin your return journey to Manila City.
The drive back takes you through the scenic countryside of Pangasinan Province as evening approaches. You can rest, share photos and stories from the day, or simply enjoy the comfortable ride back to the city.
