This is a guest post of a fourth year college student in the Philippines, sharing to us her island hopping adventure in one of the beautiful islands of IloIlo, Philippines. Her blog Unica Hija is the real home of her adventures and walks!
As a Filipina, and a lover of beach myself, I can assure and testify the beauty of the Philippine waters of which I am very proud to promote! We are often visited by different foreign nationals because of our beaches and of course, the warmth of the Filipino people.
Today, Geocel Marie (GM) will take us on a virtual island hopping to 3 islands, Calabaza, Nasidman and Gin-asyan Islands!
Calabaza island is located in the northern part of Panay, Calabaza Island also known as “The Parola Island” is where you can see the ruins of the parola and historical lighthouse build during the Spanish era.

These amazing views of the island which she vigorously captured was a real treasure that needs to be preserved!

Beautiful writeup about a beautiful island hopping. The islands of Philippines are all so beautiful, if I ever go there, it will be really very difficult for me to choose which one to go to
Wow! It's my first time hearing about this place. Looks so beautiful!! 😀 Would love to visit some time this summer or next year.
The Philippines is indeed a paradise on earth. The sheer range of its beaches and exotic islands. Its waterfalls and forests never fail to amaze me. A truly blessed part of the world.
Philippines has a lot to offer and I love the pictures of the sea and sand. You are doing an awesome job promoting your country via fellow bloggers too !
Really! That is great to know! You are most welcome 🙂
Thank you! I am honored I have raised your interest in the island and my country Philippines!
I so agree with you, me, myself, is always confused which way to go first in terms of vacation!

You said so! The waterfalls I so missed, gotta go next time I go home! Thank you for your nice words! 🙂
Thank you! I love my country and I won't get tired recommending it to friends and yes, fellow bloggers as well 🙂
Ann Yamagishi, your beaches are indeed breathtakingly beautiful. I hope your people keep these places spotlessly clean. I hope many of my Indian friends visit these places during their vacation.
Hi Swayam,
Thanks!I hope so too. You and your friends are welcome in the Philippine Islands! 🙂
Thanks for sharing her article because I actually need it. I won a roundtrip to Iloilo but I don't really know where to go and what to do there, at least now I know. I would definitely go island hopping.
Wow! We are glad to be of help. Enjoy your travel ?
