    I'll start off then

    That#1 looks so familiar.
    It could be one of hundreds of places but I really put my best guess for one of the Caramoan coves, maybe Gota, Hunognan or Matukad Island
    If I'm pushed I'll go for Gota Beach simply because it seems loads of folks end up there.

    Then the easier ones (imo)

    #6 Camiguin Island (Marks the 'Sunken Cemetery'

    #8 My best guess would be Vigan

    1. Caramoan (might be Gota beach)
    6. Sunken Cemetery, Camiguin
    8. Vigan


    9 is not El Nido

    Sorry Terpe that was a crap clue.

    It's a beach with a mountain in the background but just want the name of the island.

    The island is fairly large in Philippines terms and is knowable.

    If it's Mt Apo must be Mindanao ?
    Maybe a beach around Davao area?

    Or NOT

    I have to be honest and say I don't recognise it at all and I've never been there but I do known where it is.
    I found out by purely by accident. Bet you know how?

    If you want me to reveal it I can do or just leave it for others to try.

    I'm still puzzled by that darn mountain, it really looks like Mt Apo.

    If you know it Terpe, say it. It's the hardest out of all of them I would say. Not sure how you know it if you haven't been there though.

    Jamesey you got #7 which is Dumaguete

    As I said Jamie, by accident.

    I'm more focussed on that darn mountain, it's bugging me now
