DAVAO ORIENTAL, Philippines – Provincial government-run tourism establishments in Davao Oriental generated higher than expected revenues in 2022, marking the start of a full recovery for the local tourism sector battered by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Based on data from the Provincial Tourism Office for 2022, the historic Cape San Agustin Eco-Park in Governor Generoso town registered the highest sales at P1.5 million, followed by the Subangan Museum in the City of Mati, Pintatagan Welcome Park in Banaybanay town, Mount Hamiguitan Eco-Park in San Isidro town, and Pusan Point in Caraga town.
Last year’s total revenue of more than P8.2 million was more than five times the P1.5-million target set by the provincial government. With the influx of tourists, established tourism players in the province are upgrading their facilities to meet the demand, and new resorts, hotels, and similar establishments are rapidly popping up in Davao Oriental.
