Davao Philippines

Davao is blessed with several natural resources, that’s why it’s a nature lover's perfect destination. For one, Davao is home to the Philippine Eagle. Also known as the Monkey-Eating Eagle, the Philippine Eagle is an endangered species endemic to the country.

Davao is also famous for its fruits such as pomelo, rambutan, lanzones, and durian that are must-tries.


When planning your trip to Davao, it's essential to take note of the season, climate and weather to have a hassle-free adventure. This is to avoid canceled trips due to inclement weather that might occur at any time of day.

It is also essential when packing your things, as it would serve as a guideline on what you have to bring and wear during your trip to Davao.

Dry and Summer Season | January to May

As with the whole Philippines, Davao City only has two seasons, the dry summer season and the wet season. If you have a lot of outdoor destinations included in your Davao itinerary, it's best to explore during the dry months of January to April.

These months have the least chances of rainfall, so you can fully enjoy the outdoor activities and water adventures.

Kadayawan Festival | August

Davao celebrates its annual Kadayawan Festival every third week of August. Recognized as the “Mother of all Mindanao festivals” Kadayawan is an extravagant affair that features flower floats parades, street dancing, and trade fairs.

The festival is held in commemoration of Davao’s indigenous people and their contribution to the city’s rich cultural heritage. Kadayawan Festival is also a thanksgiving celebration for a bountiful harvest. Visiting Davao City during the Kadayawan Festival is a great way to experience the city and be immersed in its vibrant culture.
