Top 5 Luzon Philippines Beaches
With Luzon as your primary holiday destination in the Philippines, you won’t have a difficult time finding world-class beaches. From the Ilocos region in the north to the Bicol region in the south, take your pick among the beautiful beaches of Luzon Island. Having an archipelago as your holiday destination really rocks!
1. Caramoan Peninsula
With its claim to fame as having hosted the Survivor France TV series, Caramoan is steadily becoming one of the go-to beach destinations in Luzon. Gota beach, with its milky-white sand can be your jump-off point to any of the white sand beach islands dotting Caramoan peninsula.
2. Anawangin, Zambales
Although several other beaches in Luzon has finer and whiter sand, Anawangin Beach Cove is a popular camper’s point in Luzon especially in the summer months of March to May. This may be attributed to the evergreen forest cover near the beach, the swamp or the towering beach rocks great for viewing the sunset.
3. Potipot, Zambales
Potipot is a tiny patch of an island with white coral sand in Zambales. With its tiny size you could walk around the island in less than 30 minutes.
4. Pagudpud, Ilocos
Not quite the “Boracay of the North” as some tag it, but Pagudpud has earned its rightful spot with its laid-back and idyllic charm. To boot, you can sample the regional cuisine and set sights on Ilocos’ Spanish-era houses and churches after a drive to Ilocos Norte’s capital.
5. Laiya, Batangas
A short 2-hour drive from the steamy and chaotic Manila will lead you to Laiya Beach, Batangas in the south. This beach is popular to family holiday-makers with the range of resorts offering spa services to aquatic activities such as snorkeling and kayaking.

i’ll have tto agree to PETE..I’ve been to the abovementioned beach, but certainly, the Anguib Beach in Santa Ana Cagayan is the best. That time we went there, we were supposed to go to Jotay Beach Resort. When we had our meals at one of the carinderia’s in Sta. Ana, we were told about this anguib beach. Apparently, it’s the best one i could consider, though itt is still subject for development. Water is so cool…there’s alsoo some caves around the area..and, along the rough and rugged way, the monkeys are just around everywhere…
