Asia's
promising new tourist destination, Subic Bay's
strategically located, deep natural harbor once contained
America's largest military installation overseas and
a favorite rest and recreational center for the service
men. When the US Navy pulled out in 1992 after the destructive
Mt. Pinatubo volcano eruption, it has since been transformed
into a free port and Special Economic Zone. Apart from
now being a center for commerce and industry, Subic
which takes about 30 minutes by plane and 2 ½
hours by land also offers a unique combination of attractions,
including first-class hotels, duty free shopping, golf,
horseback riding, scuba diving, water sports and even
jungle treks. In Subic, you can enjoy one of the Philippines'
last virgin forests.
