They also have great coral reefs with native fish like the clown fish. It's a place I'd like to go.

And it's family! The number of Americans with Filipino ancestry is ever growing.
I’ve always considered it as a possible place to retire, looks beautiful
It sounds like a nice place to visit. I didn't know it was so good.

The Philippines is definitely on my bucket list.
How safe is it for tourists?
Generally, yes.
Here are the travel-advice & -advisories of Ottawa, London, Sydney, and Washington.

Check YouTube and you'll fine many foreigners who ended-up loving the place (even moving-in!). They should also have travel advice on safety.
Generally, avoid the southern island of Mindanao as of now. Use common sense, don't do stupid things you know will get you in trouble even in your country, and don't do anything illegal (esp. drugs). Like any jurisdiction has good & bad people & places, so do we, so be a good judge of character. Watch local news (Yes, English broadcasts are available. The major broadcasters are A. N. S.-C. B. N. News, which is anti-administration, & G. M. A. News which is more neutral/pro-. PTV is state-news.), so you know criminals' most current practices. Travel with someone if you can. And while you most likely won't need it, save your embassy's hotlines to your phone. Also, know that 9-1-1 is now the national emergency hotline, while the Presidential Complaint Center's hotline (in case some corrupt official f-'s with you or government-service is notoriously terrible) is 8-8-8-8.
I think the Philippine people are very nice!
