This island has been named the best in the world so you might want to add it to your bucket list

Planning a dreamy getaway? Siargao in the Philippines has just been named the best island in the world, so you might want to add it to your bucket list.

Conde Nast Traveler readers voted Siargao to the top spot, making it officially the best island according to them. Taking a quick look at some of the pictures, and it’s very easy to see why - just look at those beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters...

Siargao has a population of 200,000 and it’s not overrun with tourists, so it’s an ideal destination if you’re looking for somewhere peaceful and practically untouched.

Unfortunately it’s not easy to get to, as the island doesn’t have an international airport. Instead you’d need to travel to Manila, Singapore, Seoul or Hong Kong, then transfer onto a propeller plane for a final two hour flight.
