The Zamboanga peninsula is a vast region in Western Mindanao, Philippines, encompassing a beautiful mix of natural and cultural attractions. At the center is Zamboanga City, the regional capital featuring a rich Spanish-colonial heritage in between fascinating natural wonders.

When you visit Zamboanga City, you must never skip a tour of El Museo de Zamboanga, Climaco Freedom Park, Fort Pilar Shrine, and Paseo del Mar to have your fill of the region’s storied past. Then, explore the Pink Sand Beach, Sirommon Island, the Vinta boats, the Rio Hondo Village, Zamboanga Cathedral, and Yakan Weaving Village for an enriching adventure of the city’s glorious sights.

Zamboanga City is a convenient tourist spot well-connected to other domestic destinations through Zamboanga International Airport. It’s also a great starting point to explore the rest of the peninsula, including the famous cities of Dapitan, Pagadian, Dipolog, and Isabela.
