Hundred Islands


Pangasinan is more known to its most popular tourist attraction which is the Hundred Islands National Park. A cluster of more than a hundred islands off the town of Alaminos on the Lingayen Gulf. Quezon is the biggest island. Most of the islands are small and uninhabited. The biggest islands have beaches where visitors can spend the day or camp out for a picnic. Thirty of the islands are bordered by white sandy beaches and surrounded by coral. The crystal clear waters are suited for swimmers, snorkelers and scuba divers. Urduja and Cathedral Islands are interesting because of their caves. The Romulo and Shell Islands are ideal sites for a little peace, relaxation and isolation. Photo credit by: lacesdews

I'm from Pangasinan and I've been to Hundered Islands 2 times. I took my hubby there one time and we went to Quezon Island. I've been to Children's Island too. It's really pretty over there and I enjoyed riding the boat and sight-seeing.
