The provincial government of Samar is developing the Pinabacdao Mangrove Safari as a potential eco-tourism destination following an inspection by Governor Sharee Ann Tan and Mayor Via Mabag.
The project is part of efforts to promote sustainable and community-based tourism by highlighting the province’s rich mangrove ecosystems and biodiversity.
Once completed, the site is expected to offer guided tours and nature-based activities such as kayaking, boating, and educational experiences.
Officials said the initiative aims to balance environmental protection with economic opportunities for local communities while supporting livelihood generation.
The mangrove safari, which covers about 575 hectares across seven coastal barangays, may also be integrated into the Spark Samar Tandaya Trail Tourism Circuit.
