About Pagudpud
Pagudpud in Ilocos Norte is the place to be if you love the beach less the crowd.
Situated on the northern shore of the main island of Luzon, Pagudpud’s white sand and pristine beaches are the main reasons why the town continuously draws tourists.
But Pagudpud is not only about the beach, this coastal town, formerly a part of its neighboring town of Bangui, greets its visitors with its panoramic sceneries and other natural attractions. Stop in Patapat Viaduct, trek to Kabigan Falls, swim in Maira-ira Blue Lagoon, go surfing, watch the picturesque sunset and experience the hospitality of its people.
Truly, Pagudpud promises everyone an unforgettable experience in this secluded paradise.
