Philippines: Kayangan Lake and Twin Lagoon in 4K

Sun-bleached wooden boats drift across the still, turquoise surface of the Big Lagoon while hidden waterfalls like Kawasan spill into quiet pools. From the rolling mounds of the Chocolate Hills to the quiet corners of Batanes, this collection of islands moves at a slow, deliberate pace. The sound of water lapping against the shore and distant birds provides a steady rhythm, letting the natural textures of the Philippines speak for themselves. It is a quiet look at the country’s coastlines and inland forests, stripped back to just the sights and sounds of the archipelago.

Featured places: Big Lagoon, San Vicente, Nagtabon Beach, Busuanga Island, White Beach
