Honeymoon in Philippines
The best kept treasure of deserted beaches in the Pacific
Honeymoon Score
Overview
If the definition of a honeymoon is getting lost on deserted islands of blinding white sand, surrounded by sharp limestone rocks and waters so transparent they look like crystal, the Philippines is the answer. It brings that touch of pure adventure in Southeast Asia, rewarding couples willing to deal with rudimentary journeys with the most beautiful coastal landscapes on the planet.
Pros
- Possibly the best beaches and lagoons in the world
- Local people are extremely friendly and speak good English
Cons
- Very basic transport infrastructure prone to delays
- Local gastronomy less varied than that of neighboring countries
