Subic Bay eyes tourism boost with Shore Fishing tournament
Fishing enthusiasts from across the country and abroad are set to gather in Subic Bay for the first-ever Subic Bay Shore Fishing Tournament, happening from August 8 to 10 at the San Bernardino Fishing Site.
Organized by Fish’n Town in collaboration with the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA), the pioneering event marks a significant milestone in the region’s push to promote sustainable fishing practices while celebrating its rich marine biodiversity.
“This tournament is part of our larger mission to stimulate sustainable tourism and position SBMA as a prime destination for sport fishing in the North,” said SBMA Chairman Eduardo Aliño. He added that the initiative is a step toward transforming the area into the fishing capital of the Northern Philippines, while boosting ecotourism and marine conservation.
