Dakak, Dapitan City
|
It’s a sad fact that we discovered during our
participation in DRT Show HongKong 2015. But despite that, we didn’t let such
discouragement kill our spirits to market Dapitan. The fact that our booth was
situated at the back encouraged us to give all our efforts to attract attendees
of DRT Show HongKong 2015. And our concerted efforts there paid off! The
international divers started to arrive here in Dapitan since January.
Indeed we are hoping that Dapitan City will attract some more and maintain momentum hoping that both Departments mentioned above will take notice to include us in their promotions!
On April 25, 2016, the Philippines was referred to as the “apex of the South East Asian Coral triangle." The Philippine Consulate General and the Department of Tourism New York (PDOT) participated at the 2016 Beneath the Sea Travel Show which was held at the Meadowlands Exposition Center in Secaucus, NJ from April 01 to 03 to promote internationally-acclaimed dive and aquatic spots in the Philippines.
Meanwhile, the Tourism Office of Dapitan City is committing itself to add, increase and elevate their skills in tourism to make them ready for anything especially if the arriving tourists would ask for a unique Dapitan City souvenir apart from the usual and regular shirts and keyholders.
