The Philippines is an archipelago of over 7,000 islands, two of which have repeatedly been dubbed the “Best Island in the World”. It’s no secret that it’s a country with a surplus of naturally rich and culturally diverse islands. But out of the thousands, which exactly are the ones that shouldn’t be missed?
Home to some of Bacuit Bay’s most famous tourist attractions such as Matinloc Shrine, Secret Beach, and Hidden Beach, Matinloc Island is a must on anyone’s first trip to El Nido. The covert beaches are concealed by El Nido’s iconic limestone formations and Matinloc Shrine offers some of the best panoramic views in the area. These are all stops on El Nido’s Tour C package in addition to nearby Star Beach and Helicopter Island.

Just like Matinloc, Miniloc Island is not to be missed on your El Nido trip. While Matinloc is known for its obscure beaches, Miniloc is renowned for its breathtaking aquamarine lagoons: the Big Lagoon, Small Lagoon, and Secret Lagoon. Here, visitors can explore these stunning wonders of nature aboard kayaks which are also available for rent on site. Conveniently, these are all stops on El Nido’s famous Tour A package, along with Shimizu Island and Seven Commandos Beach.
