How to Get Here
Getting here, you would need to reach Alaminos Pangasinan. If you’re from Manila, you could just take a bus bound to Alaminos. (Personal preference would be Victory Liner Pasay Terminal). Upon arrival at the town proper, take the North route going to Lucap Wharf. Either you drive your way here if you’re on a private car, or rent a tricycle. Here you will see lost of rooms and/or houses for rent. Depending on your budget, you could look around the area for the convenience that suits you. The area is very small so its nearly impossible to be lost. 🙂
First things first, here at Alaminos Lucap Wharf, ask around the local boatmen or those around your rental place about the tour to Hundred Islands. For first timers, since you don’t have any idea on where to go yet, they would offer you packages. Though if you wanted to take different islands, its also possible.
