Found Paradise in Islas de Gigantes | BEST VIDEO SO FAR | Philippines | Panay | Carles
Simply: WAUW! Islas de Gigantes is a little paradise! It has some vibes of El Nido and Coron, but it's far less discovered. In this video I'll show you everything :) Featuring a land tour in Gigantes Norte and the island hopping tour in Gigantes Sur.

--WHAT TO SEE IN ISLAS DE GIGANTES--
We did two tours. The tour over land and the island hopping tour.
► Land tour
We’ve mainly seen two places:
- The old lighthouse
- Bakwitan Cave
Both are places you can hang around for a long time! It made up for a good daytrip. NOTE if you want to get all the way through in Bakwitan Cave (it’s quite big) you need to be prepaired. Good shoes and flashlight. There are some narrow passways. Otherwise just do like me and return halfway to the same entrance you entered!
► Island hopping
We arranged this through our resort. It’s one of the highlights of Islas de Gigantes.
Main attractions are around Gigantes Sur (the southern island)
We saw:
- Little Boracay or Mini Boracay or actually Tinagong Dagat. Fine sand and clear blue water
- Antonia beach (great for lunch and snorkeling)
- Salt water lagoon Tangke (fly the drone if you dare! Or swim in the shallow water)
- Cabugao Gamay Island (take a picture and enjoy the view. The most famous spot of the whole tour)
- Sandbar! Last in our tour, and a good way to end! Make sure you walk a bit over the entire island, it’s nice!
--WHERE TO SLEEP IN ISLAS DE GIGANTES--
Most resorts are in Isla de Gigantes Norte. It’s not the fancy resorts, but basic ones with good facilities. You can get food inside as well. There are more luxury resorts popping up. I am curious what this place will look like in a few years time!
► Rosewood resort:
--WHERE TO EAT IN ISLAS DE GIGANTES--
We only ate at one place, in our resort. They had amazing scallops and other seafood! Or bbq pork, you name it. Not expensive and very tasty! NOTE that you have to bring your own lunch if you’re going island hopping!

Also: order down here is random, not to spoil the video :P
Also: there is more info about individual places in the descriptionboxes of the video’s I made about those places!
--BOHOL—
► Sleep at Guindulman Bay Tourist Inn:
Go see:
► Waterfalls of Candijay (can-umantad falls)
► Rice fields of Candijay
► Lamanok island tour
► Hike behind the hotel and see the amazing valley! Just walk the road inland from Guindulman bay tourist inn for 20 minutes or so!
--LINAPACAN--
I did my tour with Buhay Isla!
--PORT BARTON--
►Hotel: I honestly think there are so many new places, I do not dare to make a recommendation!
►Tours: Jeremy & Jake tours is the one I’d recommend! Did you know I made and organize their FB page? Just a fun fact! I made it cause I really believe in them!
--SIARGAO--
There are multiple hotels I can recommend.
►Surfing Carabao:
My favorite!
►Ocean 101:
►Kawili: (also for food)
►Tourcompany I used and recommend is My Siargao Guide (book with them through Bravo resort).
Other places to check out (especially if you rent your own bike):
►Pacifico, long drive but popular surf spot and beach
►Magpungko Rock pool, which is apparently very stunning when the sun is out!
►Tayangban Cave Pool
►Tak tak waterfall
--SIQUIJOR--
►Hotel: Garden Bungalows resort (loved it!)
►Tours I booked through the hotel. Though I would recommend getting a motorcycle and find the waterfalls, beaches and good spots all yourself!
--SIPALAY—
► Sleep in Takatuka resort (featured in the video):
►Take a tour to Danjugan Island (arranged by hotel)
►Tour the main attractions of Sipalay itself (1000 pesos half a day or 1500 whole day). Excluding fees along the way.
Including Perth resort (infinity pool), the cave, one more resort and special places along the way.
You can arrange this tour with Roland Dequina – rolandtours.wordpress.com or 09489358749
--BATANES—
Visit Sabtang, Batan and Itbayat.
►Batan hotel: Nanay cita’s Homestay:
►Sabtang hotel: ask to stay at the lighthouse!
►Itbayat: arrive and ask for the mayor or miss Cano (when I was there these were the only homestays)
►Tours Batan: there is a northern and a southern tour on Batan. Do both of them! You can fit them in 1 day but rather take 2.
►Tours Itbayat: do the general island tour but ALSO the sunrise tour! That one is the BEST!
►Sabtang: go for the standard half a day tour or sleep at the island and take the extended tour! :D Both are good, it depends on how much time you have.
--ISLAS DE GIGANTES--
No recommendings for hotels. For tours: do the island tour for sure! It’s the best out here, and very close to each other.
Also go for the caves and lighthouse if you have time to spare, otherwise just stick to the islands.
--SIBALTAN (EL NIDO)—
►Sleep in Tapik Beach:
You can do all the tours in El Nido from here, just ask at the resort. Also I’d recommend to do an island tour around Sibaltan, ask for the good corals! Mangrove tour is nice, only if you have time to spare.
--CORON—
Not found a specific hotel I can recommend here.
DEFINITELY do the ULTIMATE island tour! You’ll see the lakes and good corals, the shipwrecks and the islands. If you do Buhay Isla or an other Linapacan tour, ask what they already cover cause there might be overlap here.
Climb mount Dalara if you’re done with islands

7 Best Inland and Farm Resorts in Iloilo (with pool, or hotel, beach resort not included)
Iloilo has a plethora of Beach resorts but now, inland resorts are also everywhere in the province simply because farms, hills, and the mountains --- when developed well --- are also great places for recreation.
Based on personal experience, public opinion, and online popularity, we made a list of top 7 inland and farm resorts in iloilo.
Keep in mind, coastal and beach resorts are not included in the list The resort must be themed with farm or nature.

Isla De Gigantes Islands Iloilo - Becoming Filipino
Today is the day we visit isla de gigantes, the most well known and popular islands in iloilo for filipinos to visit so we are becoming filipino.
Getting to isla de gigantes is pretty easy, from iloilo you ride a ceres bus to carles which will take around 3- 4 hours. From carles you can ride a tricycle for around 20 pesos to the pier to book your trip.
To get a private boat ranges in prices for different size boats, the cheapest 4/5 person boat is around 3500 pesos for the day.
Isla de gigantes has a huge reputation for being insanely beautiful and its true some of the islands are amazing. Its simply a must see place if you ever come to iloilo. Not so many tourists come here, i guess because its not as easy to reach. Which helps keep the beauty in the area.
Iloilo has some incredible places and island hopping trips to do, we feel like maybe it is a little overlooked by people who dont no just what beauty is here. Conception and carles have some amazing places and islands to see.
Slowly little by little we feel we are becoming Filipinos, doing things as Filipinos do. Hopefully 1 day in the future this will put us in a good situation to be able to stay here longer term and fit right into life in the Philippines.
