TOURIST SPOTS IN ILOCOS SUR

 

 

There are many interesting places in Ilocos Sur that are popular with local and foreign tourists alike.  They vary from natural to man-made, religious, historical and cultural.  Here are some of them: 

 

Vigan

The trip to Vigan is a one-of-a-kind experience that you shouldn’t miss for it transports you back into the 16th century. it is important to know that Vigan was declared as one of UNESCO’s World Heritage Site due to its well-preserved Spanish colonial towns.

What’s unique about Vigan is that it not only showcases European architecture but mixes that of oriental culture so much so that you’ll see Chinese designs beautifully spread all over the city.  Read More:  http://julesmariano.com/2013/05/03/vigan-ilocos-sur-travel-tips-and-more/

Cabugao Beach Resort, located in Ilocos Sur, is another fine place to be especially during summer vacations. To begin with, the resort has a very fine white sand beach along a majestic cove. And aside from the breathtaking views that guests surely enjoy there, a wide array of food choices from their Cabana Bar and Grill ensures its visitors satisfaction from their hunger. The resort also has a Function Hall and Conference Room which can be used upon request for certain activities like business meetings, team buildings, family reunions, weddings, etc. And if you want to avail rooms, well, all of the rooms are stylishly comfortable and rates vary depending on your choice.  Read More:  https://wayph.com/cabugao-beach-resort-cabugao-ilocos-sur/

 

Sulvec Beach

The coastal town of Narvacan (one of the largest in terms of land area and population in the entire Ilocos Sur) would actually capture a traveller’s attention as it imposes a stunning seascape. One particular spot is a rocky beach and a grotto by the sea called Paraiso ni Juan at Sulvec Point. The striking beauty of these vistas would often prompt a traveller to drop by the area. I suggest though that you stay until sundown because the sunset view is just stunning at this side of Ilocos.

The grotto built by the sea was named after Captain Juan de Salcedo, whose fleet was shipwrecked in this area. Besides the sand dunes of Laoag and Paoay, this spot is also famed for being one of the places where the late Fernando Poe Jr shot his movie “Ang Panday”. TGoing to the grotto may require wading into the water and crossing some coralline rocksduring low tide as it is located several meters away from the beach line. The beach area (Sulvec Beach) is lined with some rock formations, and brown rocky sand. A few huts can be found making it an ideal place for picnic with friends and family.

As a person who loves sunsets, waiting for the sun as it immerses into the horizon at the end of the day, is the one thing I enjoyed the most. Just heart-melting!  Read More:  https://nojuanisanisland.com/2015/09/03/sulvec/
