How we enjoyed a day tour at the Hundred Islands?

First of all, of course, we started the day by visiting the Shrine of Our Lady of the Rosary of Manaoag to hear mass and pray for thanksgiving.

From the parking lot, we got access to the wishing well, museum and parish offices, rosary garden, candle gallery and blessing area.

 Upon arrival at the Hundred Islands National Park -Lucap Warf, we proceeded to the Tourism Information Center to register for the tourist manifesto, pay environmental and parking fees, and rented a service boat. We have also rented sets of snorkeling gears, life vests, and swimming shoes.

The day tour service boat took us to several islands and to the Corral Garden with no time limit. We opted to rent a service boat for a slight additional cost as the regular boats will only take visitors to three major islands. Some of the islands we hopped in are the Governor's Island, Old Scout Island, Marcos Island, Children's Island and Quezon Island.




We had fun experiencing the fine sands, clear water and clean beach fronts. The day was filled with exciting and thrilling activities such as snorkeling, swimming and exploring the islands. While the kids are playing with the fine sands, the bravehearts had a leap at the Imelda Cave and zipline rides.

We also enjoyed the breathtaking panoramic view of the islands from the view deck of Governor's Island after a hundred plus steps stair climb.
