Before coming here please check with your Doctor or health counsellor about any inoculations you may need. There are pharmacies throughout The Philippines and most have the usual medicines available, if you have very specific requirements then you should bring them with you.

The climate is hot and sunny so wear sun block, do not spend too long in the sun and drink lots of water and non-alcoholic liquids. Unless otherwise advised do not drink tap water. Mineral water is cheap and available everywhere.
