✈️ Favorite Local Destinations (That Tourists Don’t Know About)
There’s more to the Philippines than Boracay, Palawan, and Siargao — and we want to hear about it!
This thread is for sharing those hidden gems that don’t show up on every tourist blog. Maybe it’s a quiet beach town, a cool mountain spot, a local festival, or even just a great little neighborhood café that nobody talks about.
🌴 Share your favorite:📍 Town, island, or province (and how to get there)
🏖️ What makes it special or unique
🛏️ Where to stay or what to do
🚫 Why it’s underrated or not touristy (yet)

I spent a weekend in Sipalay (Negros Occidental) and it blew me away — cheap beachfront cottages, hardly any foreigners, and amazing snorkeling. Felt like Palawan 20 years ago. Stay at Easy Diving Beach Resort and hire a boat to see Sugar Beach.
Got a place you love? Drop it here. Want to find something off the radar? Ask away. Let’s build the expat-approved travel map together.
