The adventure never stops in Bolinao. Visit the historical Cape Bolinao Lighthouse that has been proudly standing atop the Punta Piedra Point for over ten decades. This cultural heritage is one of the country’s main lighthouses that played an important role in preventing accidents at sea in an international marine passage. On the other hand, capture the beauty of the golden hour with the Bolinao Rock Formation as your backdrop.
Bolinao is a hidden gem within the province, located at the northernmost tip of western Pangasinan. Be mesmerized with the beauty of the off white sandy stretch and crystal blue water in Patar White Beach or take a refreshing dip at Bolinao Falls.
Pangasinan, or “pang-asinan” which means a place where salt is made, is the home to the 500-hectare Pacific Salt Farms, the largest salt producer in the Philippines. Take the chance to learn about salt harvesting and production. You can even ride an old locomotive through the farm and harvest salt by yourself.
Don’t miss to stop over at this church with a reputation for miracles. It was declared as a minor basilica since 2015, the highest title a church outside Italy can receive. This means the spiritual benefits that one gains by visiting the papal basilicas will also be received by those visiting the Shrine of Manaoag.
Did you know that there are 124 islands and islets during low tide and 123 when high tide at the The Hundred Islands National Park? This protected area has three major islands developed for tourism: Governor’s Island, Quezon Island, and Children’s Island and smaller islands like Sulpot Island, Monkey Island, Abad Santos Island and Hernandez Island.
