在漫旅2020年世界最佳奖项（The World's Best Awards 2020）的25个世界最佳海岛（The Top 25 Islands in the World）中，菲律宾有两个海岛得奖，其中巴拉望更是位列第一名。
NO.1
Palawan 巴拉望
得分（Score）：94.83 / 100
在漫旅的官网上，只有第一名有文字说明，对巴拉望的内容说明如下：
Roughly 270 miles long and just 25 across at its widest point, on a map Palawan looks like an arm extending from the Philippines to Borneo. It’s dramatic at sea level, with mountains rising directly from the ocean palm-edged beaches. Though it’s difficult to reach from many parts of the world, once travelers get there they can dive in World War II wrecks, explore old-growth rain forests, and paddle one of the world’s longest subterranean rivers at Puerto Princesa. “The landscape and scenery are just gorgeous,” wrote one fan. “It offers the most beautiful beaches, resorts, and scenery anywhere.”
在悦游2020年读者之选奖项（2020 Readers' Choice Awards）的世界最佳海岛（The Best Islands in the World）中，亚洲五个最佳海岛（Top 5 in Asia）夸张地竟然有三个归属菲律宾！
NO.5
Siargao Island 锡亚高岛
原文说明：In the southeast of the Philippines, 500 miles from the capital Manila, Siargao (pronounced shar-gow) feels like Bali a few decades ago. Given its smaller size (a population of 200,000, compared to Bali’s four million), Siargao has remained unspoiled, remote, and still relatively under the radar—despite the influx of development in recent years. You’ll likely fall for the island’s pristine white beaches, coconut woodlands, and emerald mangrove forest as soon as you land, as well as the clearest water you’ve ever seen.
Pro tip: Make sure to have cash (U.S. dollars or Filipino pesos) in hand when you arrive, as ATMs are rare. Most hotels accept credit cards, but many shops and restaurants are cash-only.
Getting there: Siargao has no international airport, so you’ll have to fly via Manila, from where a 2.5-hour propeller plane flight will bring you to Sayak Airport.
原文说明：A regular on our list of the world's best islands, Palawan is home to the otherworldly Puerto Princesa Subterranean River, a UNESCO World Heritage Site worth the trip alone. Many make El Nido and its blue lagoon their base, though, to explore the Bacuit Archipelago.
Pro tip: Puerto Princesa is one of the longest underground rivers in the world, traveling five miles through a subterranean cave system. Guided boat tours take visitors down a portion of the waterway, where karsts—natural rock formations created by dissolving limestone—loom in every direction.
Getting there: From Manila, it’s an hour-and-15-minute flight to Puerto Princesa, Palawan’s main airport. Alternately, ferries travel between Manila and the island several days a week (about 24 hours each way).
原文说明：Located in the center of the Philippines, Cebu draws nearly 2 million travelers annually for its pristine beaches and diving off the island’s northern coast. Spanish and Roman Cathoic influences permeate Cebu City; Basilica Minore del Santo Niño houses a small statue of Christ that was presented by Ferdinand Magellan.
Pro tip: Kawasan Falls, a swimming hole and series of three waterfalls near Cebu’s southwest coast, is popular with locals and tourists alike. Really popular—avoid visiting on weekends, and hike past the first of the falls to find a quieter spot.
Getting there: Daily flights are available from Manila into the Mactan-Cebu International Airport and are just 90 minutes, which definitely beats the 22-hour ferry journey.
在2020年的全球最美的50个旅行地（The 50 Most Beautiful Places In The World）中，菲律宾还是两个老面孔的海岛入选。
NO.18
Boracay 长滩岛
原文说明：Just an hour away from Manila, Boracay is tucked away in The Philippines’ Visayan region. This pristine island is one of the world’s top destinations for some R&R. Tranquil beaches, casual nightlife and lush tropical scenery makes it easy to see why. The peaceful island also boasts a unique food scene and has managed to maintain its unique Aklanon culture.
原文说明：This immaculate string of islands is seen as some of the best in the world and it’s pretty obvious why. Palawan is a fantastic triple threat of diverse wildlife, pristine landscapes and subterranean marvels. Because of its stretch across the Sulu and South China seas, it boasts a huge variety of nature from steep limestone cliffs to jawdropping coves and unbelievable beaches.
