We all know Davao Oriental to be the ultimate go-to place if you want yourself to experience the best that nature can offer both on land and water. They have lots of natural resources and beautiful sights that are just so mesmerizing. We have Mati to satisfy your cravings for large waves and have the ride of your life. Then there’s Aliwagwag falls if you want something mystical and larger than life. Their beautifully designed falls that have a lot of pavilions and picnic tables make the spot an ideal destination for family outing that is not too formal, just a classic Filipino picnic with the family on a Sunday. There’s also Pusan Point at Caraga if you want to know more about science and astronomy and all those kinds of stuff. Surprisingly, they also have a deep pool if you want to go on a quick batch after touring the science discovery center.

But among all the municipalities in Davao Oriental, there’s always this municipality that never fails to amaze us. It’s Governor Generoso, which is located at the farmost eastern tip of the region. The beauty of Governor Generoso is timeless basically because of its geographic location which makes it a beautiful navigational starting point, and because of the abundance of natural sights that are still waiting to be discovered. Unlike more urban areas like Mati, Governor Generoso is left unspoiled.  There’s not much crowd in there, which makes it a peaceful and calm place to just appreciate nature. Aside from this, there are a lot of emerging resorts in the area which tells us that tourism is booming but the pristine and virginness of the place is still maintained. The place also boasts a lot of stories and information about the people’s culture and history, which is beautifully passed on to tourists through the locals who are so welcoming and warm.

One of the most famous attractions in the area is Cape San Agustin which is significant in the religious aspect and navigational advantage of the place. Another one of the rising places to go in Governor Generoso is the best beach in Davao Oriental called Camp Bernardino de Lavigan. Where is Camp Bernardino?
