hundred islands in pangasinan







Among all the tourist spots in the Philippines that I’ve been to,  Hundred Islands is one of my favorites. Located in Alaminos City, Pangasinan, the Hundred Islands are scattered along Lingayen Gulf and cover an area of 18.44 square  kilometers. This National park is made up of 124 islands at low tide and 123 islands at high tide. Among these Islands only 3 were developed for tourists and  these are the Governor’s Island, Quezon Island, and Children’s Island.

How to get there:
For public vehicles from Manila it will be a 4 hour trip via Camiling thru SCTEX or a 5 hr ride through Tarlac.
Public bus lines such as Victory Liner, Five Star, and Philippine Rabbit have scheduled rides from Manila, Baguio, Dagupan, Subic, Tarlac, and Zambales bound straight to Alaminos City and vice versa.
From the terminal, you then go to the Lucap Wharf which is only 10 to 15-minute ride away either by private vehicle or tricycle. There are plenty of boats  bound for the islands docked near the Wharf. There is also a Tourism Kiosk with a Hundred Islands National Park Center staff eager to assist you with information and other things you’ll need for your island adventure.
