Golf

Tee off and experience the beautiful settings of the Philippines’ unique golfing enclaves, from lush valleys to mountaintops, seaside resorts, or just within the cityscapes. The courses have been designed by golf's premier architects, radiating the strategic brilliance of such greats as Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player, and Robert Trent Jones, Jr., among others.

About Firefly Night Tours: Firefly watching along the Ogod and Donsol rivers is no ordinary tourist attraction, as the magic only happens at night. Fireflies may be a common sight in remote provinces but what is extraordinary is the huge population of these species found along the province’s two rivers. When darkness descends, their beauty is revealed: thousands of these nocturnal insects inhabit the two rivers and provide a glow around the mangrove trees along their banks. The flicker of lights takes the shape of the tree, as if it is bedecked with Christmas lights — it is a visual feast as you go from one lighted tree to another. The trees are teeming with fireflies dancing and circling the branches, rivaling the stars at night in number. However, it is impossible to photograph them using an ordinary camera as the flash tends to wipe out the fireflies’ flickering luminescence.
