Hotels in Davao, Philippines
Davao is a region on the southern Philippine island of Mindanao, famous for its sweet durian fruit and towering Mount Apo, the country's highest peak. The tropical climate has a dry season from December to May, perfect for hiking Mount Apo's trails or taking a boat to Samal Island for snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, while the rainy season from June to November brings lower rates and lush waterfalls like the 80-foot Malagos Falls. During the cooler months of January and February, you can visit the Philippine Eagle Center to see the national bird up close, or try whitewater rafting on the Davao River when the water levels are just right.
