Palawan and Cebu: Two Of The Best Islands In The World
Why is that so? Well, it's because both Palawan and Cebu boast of stunning beaches, breathtaking natural wonders, and bustling city life, hence, catering to broad types of adventure-seekers.
With the two island provinces' regular inclusion in the world's best islands list, the Philippines further solidifies its status as a favorite world-class destination among international travelers.
Palawan held the top spot in the World’s Best Islands list in 2013 and in 2017. Cebu, meanwhile, is at number eight with a score of 89.10.
Both Palawan and Cebu are among the most popular destinations in the country, both among local and foreign travelers.
Asia is a force to reckon with
Aside from Palawan and Cebu, other Asian destinations are regularly included in the list. Occupying three spots are all Indonesian islands – Java, Bali, and Lombok.
Another Asian destination is the island country of Maldives, which boasts crystal clear, cerulean waters, and seemingly endless shores of white sand.
Other worthy inclusions in the world's best islands list
The other islands from some of the best destinations in the world that also make it to the list almost every year are Waiheke, New Zealand, Mauritius, Páros, Greece, Tasmania, Australia, Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, Cook Islands, Orkney Islands, Scotland, Maui, Hawaii, and the Azores, Portugal.
In order to come up with the World’s Best Islands list, Travel + Leisure Magazine conducts a survey among its readers in which they were asked about their travel experiences around the world.
Their opinions were taken on the best cities, islands, cruise ships, spas, and airlines, to name a few. Travel + Leisure Magazine also asked travelers to evaluate islands according to their activities and sights, natural attractions and beaches, food, friendliness, and overall value.

ReplyDeleteI agree, Palawan and Cebu are famous all over the world for being one of the best vacation spots we can find. Let’s be honest, the reason we all want to go to Palawan is all those amazing small islands and hidden beaches with virgin white sand. As for Cebu for me their delicious cuisine is also one of the best when it comes to food in the Philippines. After all, this is the very reason why they always considered the ultimate vacation destination for both local and foreign tourists.
