Pagudpud! Where on earth is Pagudpod as it is also known. This place is beautiful every day and perfect every other day. People commonly say that it is the Boracay of the North. We like to respond that it is what Boracay was many years ago! That is what makes the place so popular. It is simply how Boracay was 25 years ago! The place is also home to the pristine and pure white sands of Saud Beach.

This is a sleepy rural coastal village located at the most Northern tip of Luzon Island in the Philippines. It lies just 50 miles further up the coast from the capital of Ilocos Norte province, Laoag City. It is also about 350 miles north of the Philippine capital Manila, and you reach it by driving, catching a bus or flying up to Laoag City.

The village lies to the north of the town of Bangui and its many giant windmill generators. Inland lies the imposing Cordillera Mountain Range, which is the biggest mountain range within the Philippines. On the other side of this range of mountains is Cagayan province. Up to the North and also to the West lie the warm waters of the South China Sea.

The interest raised by many international visitors is rising and one well respected and influential international travel writer selected Saud Beach as Asia’s Number One on a list of the Top 10 Asian Beaches. It is recommended that people visit before it becomes popular with tourists.

The region contains some very picturesque and virtually deserted beaches, with breathtaking waterfalls, beautiful scenic views, and has a genuine escape from the city rat race feeling. It is not hard to understand why many directors choose to shoot TV commercials and movies in the area. Try to picture in your mind a virtually deserted trpical beach with virtually no tourists on it, with no deafening jet skis on the water, and with no long line of tourist bars and without a single fast food restaurant in sight!

The village is situated amongst verdant green mountains, rich valleys, rolling hills and flat coastal plains. The 20,000 people who live in the village and the surrounding area subsist on rice farming, general farming, fishing, and the fresh fish and lobsters are delicious and cheap here and more recently tourism is growing.

The best thing about the area are the wonderful and friendly people, you will receive a genuine Ilocano welcome, so isn’t just the best beach within Asia but it’s also possibly the friendliest location in Asia.
