Sarangani Itinerary, Backpacking in Mindanao

Photo: Beautiful view of Isla Jardin del Mar.

The Province of Sarangani became more popular because it's the hometown of Manny Pacquiao's wife, Jinkee. The boxer even represented the province in the Philippine Congress in 2010. But before being associated with the Pacquiao Family, the province is already known for its stunning tourist spots, must-visit attractions, and gorgeous destinations. Having said that, my solo backpacking in Sarangani focussed on one of its fine beaches in Glan, the Isla Jardin del Mar. Refer to Helpful Links below.

Upon arrival, I easily heard the relaxing rushing waves hitting the shoreline. After paying the entrance fee, with excitement, I headed to the side where the sound came from and found a stretch of fine white sand and playful crystal clear water. Not only that, this beach has emerald seas, the coconuts, and the trees by the beach serve as a perfect backdrop. By the way, the wind is cool and fresh and the area has a relaxing ambiance - perfect for family outing and weekend getaway. 

8 Days Solo Backpacking in Regions 12, 13, and BARMM

Introduction:

So far, traveling to the provinces in Regions 12, 13, and part of the BARMM is the most expensive trip. Again, that's so far. Nonetheless, this part of Mindanao is one of the great tourist destinations in the Philippines. There are fine white sand beaches, gigantic waterfalls, lakes, historical sites, and many more.
