During the Diving, Resort, and Travel (DRT) show in Malaysia during February 24-26, 2023, the Philippines was awarded as the Best Dive Destination.
The Philippines was awarded World’s Leading Dive Destination in 2022 and is also defending its title this year as Asia’s Leading Dive Destination at the prestigious World Travel Awards (WTA). The title has been held by the country for four straight years from 2019 to 2022.
“The recent back-to-back wins for the Philippines highlight the beauty and the blessings our country has been endowed with, and we take great inspiration from our diving communities and dive stakeholders as we continue the collaborative work of ensuring not only the marketability but also the sustainability of our destinations,” Tourism Secretary Christina Garcia Frasco said.
The DOT will continue its efforts to develop and promote the Philippines as an ideal destination for all travellers, with the aim to enhance the tourist experience, strengthen and transform the tourism industry from the ground up, and with President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr. reiterating the important role of tourism in the country’s economic development post-pandemic.
