Whether or not one has been to Palaui lsland, the name likely rings a bel. That's because the island in Sta. Ana, Cagayan—located in the northeastern tip of mainland Luzon—is the site of the reality show, Survivor USA, not just once, but twice. In 2016 CNN Travel even ranked the island 25th in its list of 100 best beaches around the world. The following year, it moved up to 10th place in the same list.

All this attention is well-deserved as Palaui lsland's features—white sand beaches, undisturbed corals, camping site, and even a century-old lighthouse—speak for itself.
