This deserted island has a lot to offer, from the cool and crystal clear emerald waters, wealthy underwater, breathtaking landscape, tranquility and relaxing ambiance, and, of course, the good people.

About the Hanging Coffins

The Hanging Coffins of Sagada are a unique burial tradition of the Igorot people, specifically the Kankanaey tribe. Instead of burying the dead underground, the locals placed coffins on high limestone cliffs in Echo Valley, believing it brought the dead closer to the ancestral spirits. Some coffins date back hundreds of years and are still visible today.
