Adventure Travel in the Philippines
First off, can we just address the fact there’s a place called the Chocolate Hills in the Philippines? Despite its name (and everyone’s hopes), the Chocolate Hills are not made of chocolate; instead, it is just a gorgeous, vast area made up of over 1,776 perfectly formed limestone hills, which is definitely worth checking out! Though the Philippines is most well known for having beautiful beaches, delicious food, and an extremely hospitable people, it’s also a great place for adventure travel in Asia. Begin your adventure in the Philippines and your adrenaline will be pumping in no time!

If your ideal picture of an adventure abroad is taking a leisurely “dip” in the pool, the Philippines may not be the place for you. For the rest of us, there are plenty of adventure travel opportunities and destinations in the Philippines, so just take your pick.
Don’t just speculate the Philippines’s vast and colorful marine life through a looking glass at the Manila Ocean Park; take a scuba dive into the ocean and get some face to face contact with the fishes (bonus points if you find Dory or Nemo!). If you’ve ever wanted to hike to the top of an active volcano, this may be your one chance. Manila is home to the world’s smallest active volcano, but don’t let the word “smallest” get you down; it’s still spooky, awesome, and smokey. A hike to the very tip of the volcano only takes an hour, and you’ll be greeted by gorgeous views and fresh air.
Speaking of fresh air and great views, there’s no better way to enjoy both of these at the same time than by going up. Parasail and skydive in Davao, a city that is known for being “clean and green.” Hope you’re not afraid of heights, because parasailing and skydiving are definitely not for the weak-stomached. If you’re ready for the thrill, you can get a 360 panoramic view of your breathtaking surroundings. Not very many people get to say they flew up high with the Philippine Eagles themselves! After a day of crazy adventures, stop by one of Davao’s many famous food markets and try some fried lumpia (similar to Asian spring rolls) or pork barbeque if your stomach is feeling a little adventurous, too.
