BY DAY

Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte, a coastal resort town at the northernmost tip of the island of Luzon, embodies my idea of an idyllic tropical paradise — a stretch of pristine, white sand beach, crystal blue waters, and no crowd.

The most popular among is Saud Beach, it is one of the most cleanest Philippine beach resorts in Pagudpud. You can bargain lower room rates here when off season! Pagudpud is not nearly as developed as Boracay, and the local government wants to keep it that way. It is being build up as a vacation hideaway where peace and serenity is waiting for you to be experienced. Summer in the Philippines is technically March-April, but with the unpredictability of the climate, this can easily change.

Pagudpud, being located in Ilocos Norte, would be extremely hot during the summer though, with temperatures reaching up to around 35 deg C. Normally, dry season is from November to April, and it would be during this period that it’s best to go to the Philipines beaches.
