Ilocos Region offers a diverse range of attractions, including historical sites, natural wonders, and a unique cultural identity.

The region is home to three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Heritage City of Vigan, the Baroque Church of Santa Maria, and the San Agustin Church of Paoay.

Other key attractions include well-preserved Spanish-era colonial architecture, such as centuries-old churches in almost every other town, and ancestral homes turned into museums, as well as natural attractions including the unique Hundred Islands National Park in Alaminos, and the white-sand beaches of Bolinao, Dasol, and Pagudpud.

Also worth a visit are man-made attractions that include the windmills of Bangui, and the picturesque viaduct at Patapat that spans along the town’s coastal mountains, connecting the region to the Cagayan Valley.

Ilocos also offers exciting activities for the adventurous and the thrill seeker, like learning to surf at San Juan, La Union, and navigating an ATV across the sand dunes in La Paz, Laoag.

The region also features unique local cottage industries engaged in traditional crafts, including the blanket-weavers of Abel and the pottery artisans of Pagburnayan and Damili.
