The Philippines is an archipelago bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the East, the Bashi Channel to the North, the Sulu and the Celebes Sea to the South. You can find it East of Vietnam and North of 

Indonesia

The country is divided into the geographical area of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. Its capital, the city of Manila, is in Luzon. You can also enter through the cities of Cebu in the Visayas, and Davao in Mindanao.

The Philippines is made of 7,101 islands. Some have grown into cities. Some are the epitome of tropical dreams. Some are just long enough to lay down and get a tan.

Big. Small. Sandy. Sunny. Relaxing. Exotic. Beautiful. Our little clutch of islands makes for one long stretch of beach – more than 15,500 kilometers. There, no one is more than two hours away from a beach-side lounge chair – which explains why everybody knows how to smile and have fun!
