A finished boat is called a "lantsa". Tawi Tawi is also one of those places in southern Mindanao that is not on most tourists' bucketlist due to security matters. However, visiting Sibutu is possible with the guidance of competent local guides and clearance from the police. The people here are very hospitable, kind and eager to share their culture. #LocalSecrets #ItsMoreFunInThePhilippines #Adventure #culture #trovember #outdoors](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/553248635924197387/a0f11fe8-1e43-4981-8f88-0f719241c48f.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh) ## Visit Sulu Archipelago Things to do - Sulu Archipelago Hotel Deals - Vacation Rentals in Sulu Archipelago ![Marcian Garden Hotel](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/25000000/24140000/24131300/24131291/1567544d_y.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=340&ch=150) ### Marcian Garden Hotel Governor Camins Avenue Zamboanga Fully refundable $55 nightly $62 total Apr 14 - Apr 15 Total with taxes and fees Book a stay at this business-friendly hotel in Zamboanga.

A history of kidnappings make this place an unpopular tourist destination. What the news and social media fail to show however are the people – their warmth, hospitality and generosity as well as the natural beauty of this place like this amazing sunrise. After days of immersive travelling, I came to realize that it doesn’t matter if we have different religions, or that we dress differently, eat different dishes, or speak different dialects. Diversity is not about how we are different from one another. Diversity is about embracing one another’s uniqueness. #ItsMoreFunInThePhilippines #LocalSecrets #Adventure #sunrise #Outdoors #trovember](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/8115/d0299dd0-b706-4be3-8724-8a2032c1c98a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Jolo ![Malamawi Island also known as the crown jewel of Basilan](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/3000396392/26695313-fbbf-4bb8-8198-69b8a0b14cd6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=512&h=288&q=medium) ### Isabela City ![Due to the use of both motorized and paddle boats, Sitangkai is known as the "Venetian Municipality of the Philippines".
