BEST TIME TO VISIT THE PHILIPPINES
The rainy season starts around May until October, strongest months are July, August and September. Well if you are coming during the rainy season, it’ll be raining a couple of days during the day but you will usually see the sun almost everyday. I would avoid those rainy months if I can, but no worries you will find sunny days and it will be less crowded in some places that you visit in the Philippines.

There was an infinity pool and couchs for relaxing and enjoying the amazing views of the islands. We enjoyed watching the sunset daily as well! The area was really quiet and relaxed since the place didn’t have many rooms. You will really have a chance to rest peacefully there.
9. MOUNT TAPYAS CORON
After a nice walk, the tour can be done in 1-2 hours and it’s free with no entrance fee. It will take around 20-30 minutes to go up not too much too see the best is going direct to the top in our opinion and enjoying the views and the sunset there.

13. WHITE BEACH, PUERTO GALERA
Maybe White Island in Puerto Galera wasn’t the most magical sunset in the Philippines. But for us it’s one of the most special since it was our first sunset together just after one week that we met. Puerto Galera was our first trip together in the Philippines.
14. PANGLAO, BOHOL
It’s not much of a secret anymore that we are so addicted to watch Philippine sunsets. In Panglao, we watched sunsets while kayaking and paddling. The colors were absolutely breathtaking, and it’s just the perfect time to enjoy the water.
A must-do, definitely. These small moments can easily make your stay in Bohol (or really, any other beach for that matter) extra memorable.

Mactan Island is located close to the International Airport in Cebu. We took this shot at the end of our trip around Cebu. It was a perfect way to end the trip.

La Union is popular destination for surfing in the Philippines. We didn’t try it. But we enjoyed sunsets and nightlife there. This sunset was at Thunderbird Resort.

Palawan is a magical island and San Vicente is calm and quiet. Apart from the long beach in San Vicente we saw one of the most magical sunsets in the Philippines.
