My World#37 Hundred Islands, Alaminos, Pangasinan

The Hundred Islands National Park is located about 257 kilometers northwest from Manila, Philippines. Scattered all over Lingayen Gulf, these 124 islands were estimated to be 2 million years old.

When we got there last week, the water was so calm and the islands looked so beautiful especially during the early morning when the morning mist was still covering the islands. They looked so mystical as seen from our hotel. We did some island hopping and soaked in the water most in the afternoon. There were three developed islands: Governor, Quezon and Children. We did most of our swimming at the Lopez and Scout islands were we had the islands for ourselves..BLISS!

A national park made up of 124 islands! That is so hard for me to imagine, here in landlocked Jerusalem.
It looks and sounds like you enjoyed the place to the fullest.
Shalom to you, Marites.

Calm and pristine island. Haven't been there. Great display of our hidden beauty and treasure Marites.

What a beautiful part of the world, and your photos show it just as you describe it - mystical and peaceful!

Gorgeous place. I would love to see this. Makes me think of places in New England that are watery and full of natural wonder.

The cloud looks to me like a profile of a woman with hair flowing in the breeze.

What beautiful pictures. It must be wonderful to visit a park made up of so many islands. And to have an island to yourself must be a dream come true.

Your National Park is much larger than ours, but so is your country! It's beautiful! Thanks for sharing.
