Natalia Peña is half Filipina, born and raised in Manila. She studied at Georgetown University and lived in New York City before moving back to Manila seven years ago to work for her family business, MOF Company (Subic) Inc. She now enjoys living and working in Manila while also traveling around the islands.
Many places in General Luna are quite close to each other, but getting a tricycle can sometimes be difficult. Renting a scooter makes it much easier to get around and also provides access to more remote beaches, like Secret Beach! But be sure to wear a helmet and always take tricycles late at night for safety reasons.
Accessible by boat tour, Guyam is a tiny island with a few cafés and bars, making it a fabulous spot for island hopping and relaxing with friends.
Cev Siargao is absolutely incredible — one of the best meals in the Philippines serving ceviche, kinilaw and just overall amazing Filipino seafood dishes.
Goodies is a beautiful shop that sells environmentally friendly and organic products from a variety of Filipino brands. My favorite brand to shop for there is the Siargao-based jewelry brand, Golden Monstera!
Located in the heart of General Luna, It has three bedrooms and a private pool. I’ve found Seaclub to be perfect for a group of friends visiting the island!
