This group of islands is scattered in Lingayen gulf, a must-see if you want to experience tropical paradise in Pangasinan. You can go there either day tour or overnight. It is basically consist of four developed main islands, namely: Quezon Island, Governors Islands, Children's Island and Marcos Island.
Marcos Island - Located here is the famous cave in which you can do activities such as cliff diving. Sadly, when we were on tour, it is closed. Kuya bankero said that it's under rehabilitation.

Children's Island - this is the part where I enjoyed the most of my day tour trip. Mainly because of the shallow water areas. We also did activites such as kayaking (300PHP for 1 hour good for 3pax). 

Governors Island - located here is the highest zipline (500 m). It is connected in two islands, it cost me only 250PHP.

Just incase you won't avail a tour package, I have read some blogs on how you can go there, either commute or by private vehicle.

Commute 
  • Ride a bus in one of the terminals in Cubao (Victory Liner or 5-Star) going to Alaminos.
  • Ride a tricycle going to the port where you can register and hire a boat.
Private 

  • Drive North taking NLEX continuing to SCTEX taking the exit
  • Towards Ramos-Paniqui Road then follow the Tarlac-Pangasinan Road going to Alaminos. 
  • Follow the Alaminos-Sual Road then turn right to S. Quimson street and drive straight to the Hundred Island National Park.
Look at my derp face haha
