The CEO of JVR Publishing in Land O' Lakes, Florida, Julius-Vincent Reyes has worked with computers for over two decades. In his leisure time, Julius-Vincent Reyes enjoys sports and travel, having ventured as far as the Philippines. For visitors to this island nation, here are three locations which, while not commonly known, offer unforgettable views and experiences.
1. Hinatuan Enchanted River. Located on Mindanao, the second-largest island in the Philippines, this mysterious formation sits near the eastern shore, against the Philippine Sea. The name of this river stems from the fact that it is unclear where the water originates. However, visitors can enjoy the otherworldly aquamarine water, and even take a swim on a hot day.
2. Adams, Ilocos Norte. This picture-perfect location is found on Luzon Island, the country’s largest and most populated island, at the very northwestern tip. Travelers here can expect greenery, waterfalls, hiking trails, rivers, and rice paddies, coming together for an unforgettably relaxing trip away from civilization. Also, the sweet Bugnay wine from the region is famous.
3. Siquijor Island. Sitting in the center of the Philippines, Siquijor offers less-crowded white-sand beaches, and many old and supposedly haunted churches to explore. It's also known for its cliff diving, popular among more adventurous guests. Siquijor was once called the Island of Fire for it's swarms of fireflies, giving it an almost supernatural glow off the coast.
