Capital and principal gateway to the country. A few historical facets and neighbourhoods of varied interest contrast with this gloomy and stifling atmosphere.

Asia

The Philippines

Manila

The gateway to the central mountains of northern Luzon, this student city has an eternally spring-like climate and makes for an enjoyable place to visit.

Baguio City

Luzon is the largest of the 7000 islands that make up the Philippines. Mountains, volcanoes, white beaches, tropical forests and an urban jungle - Luzon Island's diversity is mind-boggling.

Vigan

The main town on Busuanga Island. Considered to be the Philippines' shipwreck dive capital.

Coron

With no beaches, numerous construction sites and heavy traffic, at first glance Coron doesn't seem that appealing. But don't be fooled. It's welcoming and laid back, with excellent restaurants and plenty of great dives! 
Exploring Coron is about diving down to its numerous World War Two shipwrecks. More than twenty Japanese ships were sunk by the Americans, leaving behind a spectacular marine landscape, suited to divers of all levels. 
I highly recommend two dive sites - the Tangat et Kogyo Maru merchant shipwrecks. You can explore their holds, spot sea lions and moray eels, alongside a wealth of other species that lurk in this surreal universe. Superb dives, where you can explore a breathtaking environment, despite the limited visibility, at only an hour from the port. 
If you love history and diving, then I can highly <a href="/philippines/">recommend a holiday in the Philippines</a> centred around the exploration of these Japanese shipwrecks.
