Philippine beaches... Aisss, everything you can imagine about them is not enough!
We apologize in advance for falling into topics like paradise on earth, crystal clear waters, white sand, total disconnection... and so on.
But when you put the Philippines and the beach in the same equation, there's no other choice.
Are the beaches in the Philippines for that purpose?
Well, really yes, because in the whopping 7,000 islands it has, imagine how many paradisiacal beaches there can be. And here comes the mess because you can't go to all of them, of course.
But don't worry because we came to the rescue.
Let's see which are the best Philippine beaches and some details to help you make sure that this is not just any trip in the Philippines.
Ready?
Philippine beaches are great for diving, swimming, sailing and lounging around under a palm tree, but you have to choose the right time because it's a tropical country and the rain can be thrown at you.
So, write down in your Philippine Travelogue: avoid going from June to November because it rains hard and, who knows, maybe a typhoon forms.
If you want to go deeper into this of When to go to the country of 7,000 islands, stop by the post dedicated to it exclusively. In the meantime, here's the data you were looking for: The best time to enjoy Philippine beaches is January and February.
Just the opposite than in Spain, over there in the deep winter months the temperatures are not yet suffocating and it is difficult for it to rain.
Now that we are clear about the issue of when, let's move on to where.
As you can imagine, in an archipelago of more than 7,000 islands, there are many beaches and places worth visiting and are scattered all over the country.
In order to position yourself, when it comes to organizing yourself, you should know how the Philippines is distributed:
Knowing this, now yes. Let's go with the Top Five Of Philippine beaches.
There is no ranking of beaches in the Philippines that does not include White Beach, in the central part of the country, because it has everything: it's beautiful, big and comfortable. That is precisely why it is one of the most famous and busiest in the entire archipelago.
But don't be scared, you won't have to struggle to plant your towel in the sand as it has three zones spread over 4 km of waters of Mil Azules, with sand so fine that it looks like flour and lots of palm trees to lie under.
And that is precisely the good thing about White Beach: there you can find all the services at the same time that it has areas where you can be more relaxed.
If you are looking for a picture-perfect but quieter Philippine beach, next to White Beach there is Puka Shell Beach.
Same turquoise water, identical quality of sand, equally exotic vegetation but fewer bars and less staff.
The best thing about this Bocaray beach is its conditions for scuba diving with or without a bottle, surfing and watching the sun fall on your board while the sea rocks you in the calm of the sunset.
Lo del Nido is a world apart because it is a municipality on the island of Palawan that alone has several of the most spectacular beaches in the Philippines.
Among them is Nacpan, a photographer's paradise, Instagrammers And other lovers of images of those that stop your breathing because of its colors and because of that wild spot that makes it seem like the end of the world.
To enjoy it in all its glory, don't be satisfied with looking at infinity from the shore and jump into the sea with a kayak and freak out with the views from the sea.
This is the typical Filipino beach to go to long walks or running on white sand with the sea on one side and wild vegetation on the other to finish by taking a refreshing bath in clear water.
Imagine what this place is like that has earned the nickname of “Instagram Island”.
This small island of only 750 meters in length has two things that you have to do yes or yes and that make it such a special place.
One of them is to walk around it like someone who walks through the urban area of a big city, only here the streets are made of fine white sand and the buildings and monuments are palm trees and other tropical vegetation.
And the other one, which is what most of the staff goes for, is a Tongue of Sand which leaves the shore of the island and plunges tens of meters into waters that look like a swimming pool. On low tide days, it reaches up to 250 meters in length.
It's like a kind of footbridge over a sea of turquoise waters that make you think “I never want to leave here”.
There can't be a list of the most spectacular beaches in the Philippines without those on Malapascua Island.
It is a paradise for the most advanced divers because the fauna is I-M-P-R-E-S-I-O-N-A-N-T-E: fox and manta ray sharks are easy to see as well as seahorses, mandarin fish and other exotic species to the point where they can't.
Of all the beaches in Malapascua, we were left with...Langob Beach!
Why? Because it's a Wild beach of fine, clear sand with palm trees and waters as transparent as those of a pool where you can be practically alone.
Before we finish our Top Five of the best islands in the Philippines, we only have a couple of tips left to give you to make it the experience of a lifetime.
First of all, don't forget to take sunscreen, because the star king sticks that you can't see and the clear sand acts as a reflector and you can end up crab-red.
And finally, don't stop writing in your Travel Diary the experiences lived each of your days on the islands of the Philippines, which then come back overwhelmed by events and it's really cool to use it to remember everything.
Have a good trip!
