Features
Bounding the southern peripheries of Zamboanga Sibugay province, Sibuguey Bay has sites ideal for snorkeling and diving.
Fishing
The bay supports one of Philippines' richest fish population. It is estimated to supply fish for the 330,000 Sibugaynons inhabiting the area. However, the introduction of new fishing gears, the use of dynamite and the rapid destruction of mangroves have all contributed to a drastic decline in the bay's fish population. The quantity of fish caught by an individual fisherman had dropped ten times below the former quantity.[1]
