OF ASIA. THE ARCHIPELAGO IS COMPOSED OF ABOUT 7,100 ISLANDS
AND ISLETS THAT HAVE A MARITIME TROPICAL CLIMATE. WHICH
MEANS THAT THE CLIMATE IS HOT & HUMID ALL YEAR-ROUND. THE
TWO MAIN ISLANDS ARE LUZON IN THE NORTH AND MINDANAO IN THE
SOUTH. VARIATIONS IN TEMPERATURE ARE DUE TO DIFFERENCES IN
ALTITUDE, HOT AND HUMID ON THE PLAINS AND COOLER IN THE
MOUNTAINS. THE ISLANDS ARE WELL-WATERED WITH THE WESTERN
PHILIPPINES HAVING A DISTINCT DRY SEASON BETWEEN MARCH AND
MAY. TYPHOONS FREQUENTLY STRIKE THE NORTHERLY EASTERN COAST.
