HUNDRED ISLANDS, PANGASINAN – A perfect weekend destination at the northwest part of Luzon for busy corporate slaves.

I only knew the National Park thru my elementary text books but never had the chance to visit and to see until April 9, 2010. After a 5-hour bus ride from Manila finally I got to Lucap Wharf in Alaminos, Pangasinan. At last the hundred islands is just a boat ride away.

From the tourism office, the entrance fee to the national park cost 40/head for overnight stay, camping fee is 200/tent and motor boat rate for overnight tour is 1,800 per group of 10.

At 1300H, motor boat speeded away and started scouting for a camp site. Governor’s island was one of the options to set camp where a 360 view of the park can be seen on top and a not so comfortable rest room is available. The boat can tour you around the 124 islands of the national park.
