Introducing Philippines
Now widely recognised for its sensational beaches and welcoming community, the Philippines is sneaking up the holiday charts. Influenced by a 350-year Spanish rule, the country has a Roman Catholic tradition, and you’ll find beautiful basilicas all over the archipelago. But there’s a distinctly hedonistic streak too – as tourists descend to dive, kitesurf, and sea-kayak from the Philippines’ gorgeous beaches. Don’t worry, you don’t need a dive permit to snorkel with impressive shoals of fish: take a look at our pick of the best luxury and boutique hotels in the Philippines, and get your flippers packed.
