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.
