Sepoc Island is not exactly an island as its name suggests, but it might as well be one because it can only be reached by boat. This white-sand beach in Batangas is located on the western tip of Maricaban Island and is set between a rock outcrop called Sepoc Point and a hill that separates it from the rest of the island. This pristine spot of paradise is a haven for weekend warriors who need a short pause before going back to their daily routine. At the same time, Sepoc Island is also a perfect destination for families who want to spend an uninterrupted day or even just an afternoon in the presence of the people they value the most. The beach offers activities that family members of all ages will find appealing, including:

1. Beach games for the entire family

One of the most prominent features of Sepoc Island is its expansive white beach. The beach here is made up of tiny coral pieces made smooth by time and the ebb and flow of the sea. The beach can accommodate as many as 200 people, so it has plenty of room to spare for families or even a clan reunion. While you may not be able to build detailed sandcastles here, your family has all the space needed for activities that you can do together. You can just relax under the shade of the trees or in the nipa huts, play relay games and team sports, and keep your young ones entertained by digging in the sand. Make full use of this exclusive space while you’re here.

2. Trekking around the beach and sightseeing

This side of Maricaban Island features more than a lovely beach; it also has woodsy areas and slopes where you can stretch your legs for a few minutes. Follow the tree-lined path to the back of the beach to get a great view of the nearby Sombrero Island. You can also take a 15-minute trek to Sepoc Viewpoint where you can see and appreciate the entirety of Sepoc Beach. Along the way, you might get lucky and see local birds. There are also nearby caves that you can visit if you are so inclined.

3. Eating the freshest catch of the day

One of the draws of having a family holiday near the shore is having easy access to fresh seafood — something you can look forward to on your trip to Sepoc Beach. Eagle Point Resort, the resort that manages Sepoc Beach, offers packaged tours that include lunch, and the dishes they serve don’t disappoint. The quality of the food, the serene atmosphere, and the picturesque views will make for one memorable lunch that your family members will look back on with fondness.

4. Snorkeling and diving

A holiday on an uncrowded beach is the best opportunity to help your little ones develop an appreciation for water. The body of water around Maricaban Island is incredibly diverse, and you’ll have plenty of opportunities to see fish and other marine animals without straying far from the shore. Prepare your snorkeling gear and show your kids how a responsible visitor should interact with the critters that call the sea home.

5. Paddleboating and other water activities

If your little ones are a little bit nervous in the water, you can try out other water activities, like paddleboarding. It’s a new experience, and it’s a new activity that you can figure out together with a little bit of instruction from the staff. It’s also a great way to get a bit of exercise while you’re on a holiday with the family.

Wrapping Up

It may be a bit difficult to get phone signal on Sepoc Island, but this can be a boon to people who want to disconnect from the rest of the world if only for a few hours. This little piece of paradise is the ideal holiday destination for parents and kids who want to live in the moment, spend quality time together, and create happy memories amidst a scenic backdrop.

Touring the Philippines is not just about the beaches. Of course, these are wonderful places to visit, but there’s also something to be said about exploring the metro. What’s more, if you’re staying in cheap hotels near NAIA, you can maximize your vacation with all the places you can visit. Check out this list of must-see, bang-for-your-buck places when you visit Metro Manila in the Philippines

Yexel’s Toy Museum

South of Metro Manila, in the city of Las Pinas, you can find Yexel’s Toy Museum. The 4-story building is filled from front-to-back and top-to-bottom with a vast collection of toys, acquired through the years by the owner, Yexel Sebastian. From Disney characters to Barbie dolls, from anime and cartoon characters to comic book heroes, the museum features over 10,000 individual toys, busts, and figures.

One of the main attractions of Yexel’s Toy Museum is a collection of life-sized Iron Man suits, from Mark I to Mark XLII. There’s also a lot of Star Wars and Avengers collectibles to see, if you’re a fan of these franchises. You can also see an 18-foot bust of Optimus Prime, complete with light effects, in the museum. It’s considered the biggest in Asia, so you might want to check it out and take a photo.

Binondo

Binondo, the thriving Chinatown in the heart of the city of Manila, is the oldest Chinatown in the world. It’s been bustling with commerce even before the Spanish arrived on Philippine shores, although it was officially established in 1594. It was originally intended for Chinese immigrants who got baptized into Catholicism, but has since been transformed into a thriving business district.

You may not notice it due to the colorful establishments and busy streets, but Binondo is actually a hilly area. Its name is derived from “binondoc” which translates to “mountainous.” Binondo is most well-known as a haven for those looking for an authentic Chinese food experience. From holes in the wall to family-style restaurants, you certainly won’t leave this place hungry.

National Museum of Natural History

Opened in 2018, the National Museum of Natural History is the newest addition to the National Museum Complex located in the city of Manila. The “Tree of Life” elevator, the central feature of the atrium, is an attraction in and of itself. You’ll probably find flocks of tourists taking selfies at the foyer, where a replica of one the largest saltwater crocodile specimens ever discovered can be found. The rest of the museum comprises six floors with various galleries that showcase just how diverse the Philippines’ ecosystems and natural resources are.

The best thing about the National Museum of Natural History (aside from the wonderful exhibits)? Entrance is absolutely free! Locals, foreigners, students, senior citizens, children—absolutely everyone can enter the museum free of charge. Just make sure to follow the rules! While you’re in the area, you may also want to drop by the other establishments in the complex: the National Planetarium, the National Museum of Fine Arts, and the National Museum of Anthropology. The Rizal Park is also nearby.

Manila Ocean Park

Manila Ocean Park’s largest attraction is the Oceanarium, which houses about 14,000 marine creatures found in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. A 25-meter section of the area is dedicated to a 220° curved walkway tunnel, where you can see hundreds of sea creatures swimming around. There’s also a bi-level viewing facility where you can see sharks and stingrays. An interesting fact about the Oceanarium is that the water in its displays comes from Manila Bay. Through a special process, the water is filtered and salinized to make sure it can sustain marine life.

Despite its name, Manila Ocean Park also has other attractions that feature birds, bunnies, hamsters, insects, spiders, and frogs, among others. There’s also a bird show and a sea lion show, as well as an augmented reality interaction and even fun neon-lit pedal cars. There’s also a fireworks and water show every night at 6:30 PM.

Intramuros

The Walled City is one of the oldest districts in Manila, with Spanish-era influences clearly visible in the facades of buildings both old and new. Visiting Intramuros also puts you in the midst of various tourist spots, including Fort Santiago, Baluarte de San Diego, the San Agustin Church, and the Manila Cathedral. It will take you about 2 to 3 hours to see everything in Intramuros, so you may want to consider renting bamboo bikes from Bambike Ecotours. You can rent a bike on a per hour rate and explore on your own, or book a guided tour with Bambike so you can also learn more about the Walled City.

Bonifacio Global City + Mind Museum

Bonifacio Global City or BGC is located in the city of Taguig. It’s an urban enclave and business district in Metro Manila, with towering office and commercial buildings, tree-lined walkways, and various shopping and dining establishments. However, BGC is more than just a concrete jungle. It’s also a haven for art. Walk around and you’ll see large-scale installations, wall murals, and other works of art. Like in Intramuros, you can choose to tour on your own or book a guided tour.

Once you’re done with the outdoors, drop by the Mind Museum. It’s a non-profit project of the Bonifacio Art Foundation established as “world-class home for science.” Apart from galleries and exhibitions, the Mind Museum also features interactive workshops. There’s also an outdoor area called Science in the Park, as well as a botanical garden.

Tiendesitas + Greenhills Shopping Center

If you’re in need of some retail therapy, you may want to drop by Tiendesitas in Pasig and Greenhills in San Juan. You can find Philippine-made handicrafts, antique furniture, souvenirs, even plants and pet supplies in Tiendesitas. There are also some cultural shows during the weekends. Meanwhile, Greenhills Shopping Center is a favorite of bargain hunters. It’s also one of the best places to get genuine South Sea pearls in the country.

Maginhawa Street + Teachers Village

Up north in Quezon City lies Maginhawa Street and Teacher’s Village. These locales have been transformed over the years as food and art districts. If you’re looking for authentic Filipino food, you can find food parks and holes in the wall in these areas. There are also resto-bars and cafes that serve traditional and fusion-style food. For those who are looking for something more exotic, you can also try Pinoy street food like kwek kwek (hard-boiled quail eggs deep-fried in an orange batter), isaw (barbecued chicken intestines), betamax (barbecued congealed pork or chicken blood), and balut (boiled duck’s egg, around 14 to 20 days of age).

Aside from dining establishments and food carts, you can also find bookstores, souvenir shops, galleries, and other artistic hubs in the area. Another locale, Cubao Expo or Cubao X, is also located in Quezon City. This hub attracts artists, skaters, musicians, and foodies who enjoy a laid-back, vintage vibe. You can find locally made arts and crafts, apparel, instruments, and various other knickknacks both retro and modern.

Once you’re done sightseeing, drop by Manila Bay to witness the glorious sunset. It truly is a must-see! Afterwards, you can continue your explorations by finding the best bars, speakeasies, and clubs for a buzzing nightlife.

When you ask a Filipino about their dream trip, you’re sure that most of them will choose to go to Sagada as a part of their lists. This Philippine travel destination, unlike other crowded tourist hot spots, offers the quiet charms of nature and the fascinating allure of culture and tradition.

Sagada is located in the Cordillera Mountains in Mountain Province and is home to over 11,000 population. In the past, only the brave and daring backpackers had the chance to experience its beauty but thanks to social media, many people have discovered that the challenging journey to this paradise is all worth it.

If you’re finally planning to make your way to this sanctuary in the mountains, you’ve come to the right place. This article will tell you everything that you should know about how to create an unforgettable itinerary. So what are the best things to do in Sagada? Here they are.

1. Experience the afterlife and check out the Hanging Coffins – up close.

The hanging coffins in the Echo Valley are perhaps one of the most popular destinations in the area. Many of those who are either curious about the local’s funeral traditions or just want to see something different visit this solemn place.

Hanging the dead on cliffs is an ancient Sagadian tradition. However, only a select few locals had the opportunity of honoring their dead through this tradition because of some standards and qualifications that they had to adhere to. Tourists who want to reach this place can either hire a local guide or join group trips for better convenience.

2. Activate your full-on explorer mode and go spelunking inside the Sumaguing Cave.

Also called the “Big Cave”, the location is known as a former refuge for Filipino soldiers during the Japanese occupation. Many travelers visit this place not only because of its historical value but also for its challenging slopes and tunnels.

Exploring the cave is an adventure on itself because it is an expansive cave network. And anyone who dares to choose this for their itinerary will be greeted by fascinating stalactites and stalagmites.  The destination is located along the South Road in Sagada. Before choosing this for your trip, make sure you’re physically ready to take on whatever thrilling experience that this place has to offer.

3. Hike and witness the majestic wonders of the Bomod-Ok Falls.

Almost a few hours away from Bangaan is Bomod-Ok Falls, one of the best places to be when in Sagada. This is the home where you can witness the majestic dance of the cascading waters coming from the mountains. The natural pool beneath it is extremely cold and perfect for soothing the sores of a few kilometers of hiking. In short, the trip is always worth the hike and sweat.

Trekking to this part of Sagada requires a paid guide and a PHP 10.00 registration pay collected by the locals. From your accommodation, vans can be rented out for PHP 600 (as of 2018 data) so that they will take you to the jump-off point.

4. Capture picture-perfect sceneries and walk along the rice terraces.

Of course, Mountain Province’s rice terraces is one of the most popular destinations in the area. In fact, most people have been attracted to visit Sagada because of this natural gem. This strategically designed terrain has served as the region’s primary source of rice, their staple food, and the same mechanism has been used not just in Sagada but also in other parts of the country.

Batad’s rice terraces may be more popular than Sagada’s carefully carved mountainsides but it doesn’t mean that it does not offer the same grandeur. Take out your camera, pose for a selfie or capture the magical mountain view to remind you of such a beautiful moment.

5. Experience the art and history of Sagada and visit the Ganduyan Museum.

This small yet valuable museum introduces Kankanaey’s culture through the displayed artifacts, furniture, accessories, utensils, sculptures, traditional clothes, and a lot more. The name of the museum is actually the traditional Kankanaey name of Sagada.

The woman behind this cultural sanctuary is Christina Aben. If you’re lucky, Aben herself will be your personal museum guide and will tell you a myriad of things about the region’s history, culture and traditions. Adding this to your itinerary will help you understand Sagada better, especially from the perspective of an expert who knows the true story of this mystical place.

6. Experience the flavors of Sagada through a humble culinary journey.

Restaurants in Sagada may not be as grand as the places you find in major cities. In fact, they do not even fit the definition of a “huge restaurant” because of their size and list of menu, but they are a culinary gem on their own.

Visiting Sagada should also be a journey of experiencing its culinary culture. Delicacies such as the patupat rice, blueberry muffins, bugnay wine, and a lot more, can be tasted and savored at affordable prices. Food places such as the Salt and Pepper Diner, Vincent’s Coffee and Grill, and other local food stops have all unique dishes that they are proud of.

7. Just walk around town and create your own unique memories in Sagada.

Most people travel to see places but there are others who go to the world’s most beautiful towns to experience the different cultures and perspectives of the local community. When in Sagada, you can do just that. Once you’re already full and think that you have visited enough places to call it a day, why don’t you just walk around town and get the real feel of the place?

Who knows, you might meet new people who will not only help you get to know the real Sagada but will also give you a new perspective through their own travel stories. Don’t be shy to meet friends or even talk to the locals. After all, the best travel experience is when you remember the places, the faces, and their stories, and get to remember them for the rest of your life.

Sagada may be one of the best places that you can visit in the Philippines. As a final note, make sure that before journeying into this mountainous region, you have to know the rules and responsibilities that you have as a tourist and as a traveler. Good luck and have fun!
