The beautiful Philippines consists of more than 7000 tropical islands, far from all of which have been set foot by man. At the same time, there are also huge megalopolises with a well-developed tourist infrastructure, and there are also places that are ideal for lovers of a “wild” type of recreation. The tropical climate allows you to relax here almost all year round, and the abundance of offers for active recreation attracts a variety of tourists. The Philippines can rightfully be called a fabulous country that is designed to bring pleasure to people. The local people are quite lazy, but very cheerful and good-natured. The friendly atmosphere will make you wish to come here more than once, and this wish will certainly come true.
Manila is a large metropolis with its own unusual characteristics. The fact is that here, rustic shacks with a minimalist approach to life are side by side with huge houses equipped with the latest technology. This is a city of contrasts and surprises, so you will come here every time as if for the first time. The cheerful city dwellers constantly sing and are in a great mood. There is a special attitude towards tourists - they are honored as dear guests, trying to cause them as little inconvenience as possible. The local cuisine is not particularly exotic - you can try all these dishes in any European country. They prefer to rest here on the islands, away from the city, where nature takes over, and civilization retreats.
However, visiting vacationers often sunbathe in the immediate vicinity of Manila, on local beaches.
The best sandy beaches in Manila have many pleasant benefits:
- the proximity of famous historical monuments;
- a large number of proposals for outdoor enthusiasts;
- many changing cabins, free toilet;
- cafeterias, pubs, tourist bars with reasonable prices and much more.
Most often, Manila residents come to sunbathe and swim on the nearby island of Catanduanes. The local beach is called Puraran, and it is also considered a kind of center for surfers. The beaches of Manila, located within the city, are not particularly clean, but the sand on Puraran beach is pleasant both to the sight and to the touch. There are several more fairly large and very well-groomed beaches nearby. It is worth remembering that in autumn there are dangerous currents here, so it is completely undesirable to go in for water sports without a life jacket at this time. The best time to visit this island is between late April and mid June.
