Hundred Island National Park


Located in the town of Alaminos in Pangasinan, Hundred Islands is the iconic tourist spot and national treasure of the said province. It is composed of about 123 islands and islets when high tide (124 when low tide) which are scattered across the Lingayen Gulf. Among them are the Governor's Island which is the largest island, then Quezon Island and Children's Island.

We have visited the Governor's Island which is more or less 200 feet through a plight of stairs which can be reached in 10 minutes. The summit offers a panoramic view of the whole Lingayen Gulf, Lucap Bay, and the surrounding islands. For adventure junkies, one can also try the zipline that connects to the nearby island.

How to Get There:

1.) Take a bus bound to Alaminos, Pangasinan  (FiveStar), they have terminals in Cubao.
2.) Once in Alaminos,  you can then ride a trike to Lucap Wharf - the gateway to the Hundred Islands.
3.) Since me and my wife were lone travelers, I rented the whole boat good for 10 people (3500php) and its all worth it.
