HONG KONG<\/span><\/span>, Feb. 10, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Join The Journey Matters <\/i>as CNN showcases creative ways to discover the stunning beauty of the Philippines<\/span>.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

With nearly six million international visitors arriving in the Philippines<\/span> in 2024, tourists are encouraged to engage in responsible authentic experiences that honor traditions and protect the environment while supporting the local communities.<\/p>\n

Consisting of over 7000 islands, the Philippines<\/span> is a haven for diverse flora, fauna and marine life. From the country’s surfing capital, Siargao, and its “cloud nine” waves to the Ifugao rice terraces of Luzon, the Chocolate Hills in Bohol and the rolling hills of Batanes, the charm of the Philippines<\/span> is readily apparent.<\/p>\n

CNN begins its journey in El Nido, Palawan, famed for its crystal-clear waters, breath-taking sunsets and lines of coconut trees. Resident Isobelle Soriano<\/span><\/b> explores ways to connect with the outdoors around El Nido, including at Lio Tourism Estate, an emerging cultural hub just fifteen minutes from town, surrounded by nature and dotted with artisanal cafes, creative shops, and boutique and luxury hotels.<\/p>\n

For adventure seekers interested in island hopping from El Nido to Coron, expedition company BIG DREAM BOATMAN<\/b> and their knowledgeable crew showcase the beauty of the Philippines<\/span> by sea \u2013 think turquoise waters, fascinating rock formations and picture-perfect sandbars \u2013 while emphasizing the importance of marine conservation for future generations.<\/p>\n

The journey also takes viewers to Siquijor, known for its ancestral traditions of healing. Accessible by plane and ferry, the remote “healing island” draws local and overseas visitors seeking physical and spiritual rejuvenation as well as adventure. From meeting traditional healers to soaking in its famous waterfalls, Siquijor captivates with its untouched beauty. CNN joins a local guide to embrace the mystique of Siquijor and discover its traditions.<\/p>\n
