Region I · Luzon
Waterfalls in Ilocos Region
The Ilocos Region covers the northwestern coast of Luzon, including Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, La Union and Pangasinan. Our coverage is Ilocos Norte, La Union and Pangasinan, with Kabigan, Anuplig, Tangadan, Balay Anito, Simminublan, Occalong and Bolinao. Laoag, Vigan, San Fernando and Bolinao are the main gateways, with buses from Manila taking several hours. The landscape runs from coastal dunes and wind farms to the green Cordillera foothills and the reefs around Patar. The dry season is best, and the northern sites are easier to combine with a coastal road trip.
