Surf spots in the Philippines are abuzz with good vibrations. Incredible waves, romantic sunsets, friendly locals — there’s little else you can ask for. Surrounded by bodies of water, the archipelago definitely has countless surf spots, many of which remain undiscovered. But thankfully, surfing has picked up across the country in recent years. As a result, you’ll find more thatched kiosks along coastlines, with vendors blasting reggae rock and selling Pale Pilsens like nobody’s business.
