Overview

The Philippine Islands are one of the largest archipelagos around the world. It comprises 7, 107

islands which during high tide, only 7,100 are visible. Since the only way to get to many of its

stunning islands is by the sea, the country has become a good cruising and island hopping spot in

South East Asia. Some of the amazing places to visit are Baler, Batanes, Bohol, Busuanga, Cebu,

Davao, Hundred Islands, Malapascua, Pagudpod, Palawan, Panglao Island, Puerto Galera, Subic

Bay, Tagaytay, and Zamboanga.

Generally, the Philippines is a safe cruising area and despite the impressions on rebels attack, the

insurgence in Mindanao is located farther south. In 2013, Davao City in southern Mindanao was

even ranked as 4th among the safest and 7th on the best cities in the world. (References:http://kickerdaily.com/davao-city-ranked-7th-among-the-worlds-best-cities-to-live-and-work-in-remotely/,

Courtesy Flag

The National Flag of the Philippines is a horizontal bicolor flag with equal bands of royal

blue and scarlet red, and with a white equilateral triangle at the hoist. It is commonly known as

the Three Stars and a Sun. At the center of the triangle is a golden yellow sun with eight primary

rays. These rays represent the country's first group of provinces that started the 1896 Philippine

Revolution against Spain. The five-point star at each vertex of the triangle represents one of the

country's three main island groups - Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. If the red side of this flag is on

top, it indicates a state of war.

Arrival and Departure

Yachts arriving/departing in the Philippines usually report to the yacht club initially and is best

advised to give advance information on arrival and/or departure. Asia Pacific Marine (APM) can

process custom and immigration clearances for visiting yachts. Yachts must try to give 24 hours

advance notice of arrival at the Port of Entry especially those with animals aboard which are subject

for quarantine. APM can also clear documents and permit for animals. APM has associates in Cebu

and Puerto Princesa, Palawan that can also clear yachts and offer seamless services throughout the

Philippines.

Cash Withdrawals

There are thousands of banks and ATMs in the Philippines wherein visitors can use their card but

don’t expect these to rural areas. Always secure cash before leaving a city. There are three major

local ATM consortia in the country: BancNet, MegaLink, and Expressnet. Normal bank charges will

be applied. It is best to always secure identification cards which may be required for changing

travelers’ cheques (USD travelers cheques are the most secure). You can contact us for money

transfers and encashment assistance.

Money Changers

Visitors can easily find money changers in commercial centers in cities which you can also find in

department stores and shopping mall premises. Local moneychangers are also available but though

they offer higher exchange rates, it is safer to go to the banks, or hotels and resorts.

In Manila, there should be no trouble changing US dollars, British pounds or euros. Japanese yen,

Canadian and Australian dollars, ASEAN currencies, and some currencies from the Middle East are

also accepted. In smaller cities, US dollar is most commonly accepted.

Emergency Telephone Numbers

The official emergency hotline in the Philippines is 117 (pronounced as one-one-seven) and is the

only emergency number in the world that can be accessed via voice call and text messaging

managed by the Department of Interior and Local Government.

Subic Bay Freeport Zone

Location

Subic Bay Freeport Zone (SBFZ) or simply Subic Bay was a military base that was successfully

converted into a tax and duty free zone managed by Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority or SBMA. The

place is 110km north of Manila and can be reached via expressways with approximate travel time of

3 hours depending on traffic.

“The mountain ranges around the Subic Bay area and the deep natural harbor provide excellent and

protected anchorage. In addition, these features make SBFZ naturally sheltered from typhoons.

Subic Bay Freeport Zone is in Region III (or Central Luzon Region) of the Philippines. It is one of

the points in the growth triangle (and an engine for economic development) in the region. SBFZ is a

supplier of services and products for the Central Luzon Development Program, a regional growth

area composed of the provinces of Bulacan, Nueva Ecija, Tarlac, Pampanga, Bataan,

and Zambales.” (Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subic_Bay_Freeport_Zone)

Parasailing

Marina

Subic Bay Yacht Club

Subic Bay Yacht Club (SBYC) is at

14°49’23N and 120°17’14E. It is located

along Rizal highway, Subic Bay Freeport

Zone, Philippines. SBYC is a recreational

facility located near the business district of

Subic Bay Freeport Zone that provides

convenient and affordable weekend

getaway. The main clubhouse is a blue-chip

facility that offers high-end entertainment

and living. For more info, please go to

http://www.subicbayyachtclub.ph/.

Philippines - Guide for Superyachts 2015 . Subic Bay Freeport Zone

Docking Options

Aside from the Subic Bay Yacht Club, there are other docking options available.

e. Bravo Pier

APM usually do refit and repairs at Bravo Pier. This is in the middle of town and the crew will need passes to get in and out of the compound. There is ample power. However, the yard is used by a lot of small boats doing annual maintenance. It is also right beside Subic dock which creates a lot

of dust as well. We will need to clear in the yacht club or anchor out and wait until you are cleared in before heading into the dock. We may have to get a tender to come and collect the CIQ to board. The dock is very cheap at PhP25, 000.00 a month.

f. Nabasan Pier

This dock is clean but has no power and it is quite a drive for the crew to get into town, say about

15 minute drive. You will need to secure a hire car. We will need to clear in the yacht club or anchor out and wait until you are cleared in before heading into the dock. We may have to get a tender to come and collect the CIQ to board. 35,000 per month (cost will depend on the specs of

your yacht)

Philippines - Guide for Superyachts 2015 . Subic Bay Freeport Zone

g. Camayan

This dock is also very clean privately owned by the whale park. There are hotels and 2 restaurants nearby open 24 hours. They will provide hire cars and vans for you they can provide you with fresh

water. Power might be an issue for your size yacht, if you could give me your daily consumption KVA I will be able to let you know if they can provide power. The area has the cleanest water in the bay and is tightly controlled by Ocean Adventure. On this dock you will be able to clear in on

the dock since it is a privately owned dock.

This berth is even further than Nabasan and it will take about a 20 minute drive into town. Another

concern is that the area is right by the whale park and spillage of contaminants like oil and detergents during wash down will have to be scrutinized very well.

Philippines - Guide for Superyachts 2015 . Subic Bay Freeport Zone

Dry-Docking Options

a. Herma Shipyard: Floating Dock

This is APM’s all-around best bet and we have the best relationship with them. For more info please

visit http://www.hermashipyard.com.

us%252Fofficers%252F%3B940%3B336)

b. Nautilus 2 Shipyard and Repair Facility: Travel Lift

This yard has a 600 ton travel lift. It is in Manila and the area will not be clean and security may be

a problem. However, they are very cheap as the last quote we got for a 40meter simple dry

docking was roughly $20,000 for a 7 day haul out.

c. Subic Dock

Although Subic Dock does not usually take yachts, clients may be entertained if lucky enough that

the dock has no vessel. It is right beside the Subic Bay Yacht club and will be very convenient if

available.

Fuel Docks

APM can arrange fuel at the POL coastal dock jetty or the jetty beside the yacht club owned

by CS&T Subic, Inc.
