<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>So, you're thinking of traveling to the Philippines in 2022? Excellent choice! The Philippines is a country with a lot to offer visitors. From its white-sand beaches and lush jungles to its vibrant cities and historic towns, there's something for everyone.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>To help you make the most of your trip, we've put together a list of the best things to do in the Philippines. Here are just a few of our favorites:</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:list -->
<ul><li>Go diving or snorkeling off the coast of Palawan and see some amazing coral reefs. You can also visit the world’s longest underwater limestone caves and enjoy a day trip to El Nido for its natural beauty.</li><li>Kawasan Falls is one of the most iconic landmarks in the province. The trails to the falls take you alongside waterfalls and eventually lead you down to a stunning basalt formation called Kawasan Falls. The number of trails depends on your pace and comfort, but we recommend a swim at Kawasan Falls since it's especially refreshing during hot weather!</li><li>Panglao Island, a small island located southwest of the main island of Bohol, is one of the favorite destinations for travelers looking to escape the crowds. A paradise that’s so remote and only has a handful of resorts and restaurants, Alona Beach is one of these picks. The beach itself sits on an immense stretch of white sand and offers ocean views straight out into the Pacific Ocean.</li></ul>
