      Hopefully you can come back and visit more islands here or maybe trek some mountains.
      You must visit the Batanes Group of Islands and the Babuyan Group of Islands in the extreme northern Luzon. These islands are so north, you can hear Chinese on the radio as they are so near to Taiwan. Both these island groups are very different from the rest of the Philippines as these are part of the Batanes Islands Protected Landscape and Seascape which is nominated for UNESCO World Heritage List.
      I have some videos here from local travel shows and local vloggers but they are on Tagalog or Filipino language but you can still watch the scenes and views from both islands.

    Hi. Guys..youll be be expecting an island to be like your own, Just imagine what's it like to be in a country to have 7,707 islands..There are still 450 islands in Philippines where tourist are off limits..Its our best keep secret....located in a remote area in the Philippines..Sands are the same as the ones seen in Amman polo resort..I hope you enjoyed our beautiful beaches, and yet there are plenty to be discovered by both of you...Sadly some of it are restricted by our government to be off limits..Takecare stay safe..

      Thank God for that wonderful island that He created. It's show that God's mighty hand who made that, the nature that we have, is not a man made. We're blessed as Filipino. All glory to God, the Creator of heaven and earth 🌎 enjoy your stay in our country. May God's traveling mercy be upon you both.🙏

      Dont believe just any idiot commenting on youtube. He does not know anything. These new islands were just added because of advancement in mapping technology. They have been there all this time and there is absolutely no indication that foreign tourists are not allowed to see them.

    Your excitement is exactly how we all felt when we went there around May of 2019. Literally stunning like no other, especially Onuk Island. I dont know if am happy with the news that there will be a formal resort to open up there soon. Because i thought that being so remote and basic was one of the charms. Hopefully the resort keeps its rawness and bring more sustainable jobs to our locals :) So nice to see you guys enjoying the islands ❣️ good advice to lather up with some bug repellents too 🎯
