Siargao community is very friendly and open; there\u2019s a special vibe here,\u201d says Bianca Espinos, who set up Galatea Tours in 2015 to offer island-hopping experiences to discover Siargao\u2019s beaches and feast on seafood lunches. \u201cThe whole island is protected because of its natural diversity \u2013 the mangroves, rich sea life,&nbsp;and rock&nbsp;pools. This is what makes the island really unique.\u201d<br><br>Galatea Tours services a healthy number of domestic tourists, so Espinos could continue operations and adjust to pandemic-era safety protocols even after the Philippines closed to international visitors.

Guests spend their days strolling among the iconic domed architecture, lunching in tree houses, lounging on the beach, and relaxing into yoga classes. Even before the pandemic, Nay Palad Hideaway thought carefully about how to keep vacation groups separate.<br><br>\u201cWe plan activities in such a way that guests don\u2019t meet each other,\u201d says Vince Lampert, general manager of Nay Palad Hideaway. \u201cWe also use the whole resort like a restaurant, which keeps people separate and offers different dining experiences.\u201d Nay Palad Hideaway offers highly private vacations, but that hasn\u2019t stopped the resort from implementing additional safety protocols.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\t<article class=\"wp-block-carousel

The local culture is also rich, with many time-honored belief systems still in practice. And as the Dinagat Islands are remote, not highly populated, and with very few tourists, most activities are inherently socially distanced.<br><br>Surigao del Sur on the region\u2019s eastern coast is another overlooked corner in the country, with \u201ca good mix of culture, adventure, and nature to experience and explore,\u201d says Amores. Intrepid travelers can seek out the Tinuy-an Falls, terraced waterfalls with ample swimming opportunities, or the Enchanted River, an ethereal blue body of water ringed by lush vegetation.<\/p>\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image wp-block-image--default \"><img
