In the middle of the park's 1,884 hectares is a tight cluster of 123 islands that beacons the world to enjoy.
Day-trippers and overnighters can enjoy the pleasures of this natural wonder.
The islands are like an armada of ships sailing in Pangasinan's Ligayen Gulf or a group of sea turtles coming back to their nesting grounds. Let your imagination go free and your visit to the Hundred Island National Park will be more memorable!

124 at low tide and 123 at high tide
Pangasinan is famous for the Hundred Islands National Park. This is a marine park located off the coast of Alaminos City in the Lingayen Gulf and is composed of some 123 islands, most of which are quite small and uninhabited.
The Hundred Islands National Park (Pangasinan: Kapulo-puloan or Taytay-Bakes) is in the province of Pangasinan in northern Philippines. It is located in Alaminos City, Pangasinan. The islands (124 at low tide and 123 at high tide) are scattered along Lingayen Gulf and cover an area of 1,844 hectares (4,556.62 acres). They are believed to be about two million years old. Only three of them have been developed for tourists: Governor Island, Quezon Island, and Children's Island.
Trivia
One of the islands was named 'Rated K Island' after a Philippine TV programme.
The town Anda, located north-east of Alaminos City, is often called the "mother island" of the Hundred Islands.
The Pinoy Big Brother had another house in Hundred Islands. It was located on Governor Island and was first used by the Teen Edition housemates.
Superstitions
When it is your first time to visit the place, people believe that kissing the statue of Princess Urduja would protect you before riding the boat on your way to the islands
