ESCAPADES: BATANES EDITION with Side Trip to Pagudpud
Discover the raw beauty and timeless charm of the northernmost frontier of the Philippines—Batanes. In this special edition of Escapades, we take you on a windswept journey through rolling hills, stone houses, dramatic cliffs, and quiet coastal villages where tradition endures and nature speaks in breathtaking silence.
From the iconic Rakuh a Payaman (Marlboro Hills) to the quaint Ivatan settlements of Savidug and Chavayan, explore the islands of Batan, Sabtang, and Itbayat, each offering a distinct piece of the Ivatan soul. Visit age-old churches, bask in panoramic viewpoints like Chamantad-Tiñan, and stand on the edge of the world at Alapad Rock Formation and Blow UR Horn.
As a bonus, take a scenic sidetrip to the northern gem of Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte—where white sand beaches, turquoise waters, and winding coastal highways await. Let the Patapat Viaduct, Bantay Abot Cave, and Blue Lagoon complete your northern Philippine adventure with sun-kissed serenity.
This issue is your essential travel companion—filled with curated itineraries, rich cultural insights, and hidden gems to inspire your journey. Whether you’re a first-time explorer or a returning wanderer, Escapades: Batanes with Pagudpud Side Trip will rekindle your love for slow travel, deep connection, and the simple joys of discovery.
Escapades! Magazine Description:
Escapades: El Nido
Where Limestone Dreams Meet Turquoise Realities
In this unforgettable issue of Escapades, we set sail to El Nido — Palawan’s crown jewel, where towering limestone cliffs guard hidden lagoons, and every boat ride feels like a journey into a dream.
Explore island-hopping adventures that lead to secret beaches, emerald lagoons, and snorkeling spots bursting with marine life. Wander through the vibrant town proper, where island culture, cuisine, and conversation flow as freely as the tides. Dive into the myths and history surrounding places like Cadlao Island and the storied fort of Fuerza de Sta. Isabel, and meet the locals who call this paradise home.
From quiet sunrise paddles in Big Lagoon to cliffside sunsets that stop time, Escapades: El Nido captures the spirit of discovery, romance, and raw natural beauty that defines this breathtaking corner of the Philippines.
