Tourist arrivals in Camarines Sur reached 902,202 in the first six months of 2009, making it the most favored tourism destinations in the Philippines, a report of the Department of Tourism (DOT) said here Thursday.
Even Governor LRay Villafuerte himself was taken by surprise by the latest DOT figures. “CamSur ranked third most visited destination last year, but we were not expecting to rise to the very top in such a short time”, he said.

The province accounted for some one-fourth of the total tourist arrivals in the key destinations in the country with a robust growth in both foreign and domestic visitors by 52 percent and 260 percent, respectively. The rise in tourist arrivals in CamSur is largely credited Villafuerte’s judicious and timely investments in tourism projects.
At the forefront of the province’s main tourist attractions are the Camarines Sur Watersports Complex (CWC), which is now a wakeboarding mecca and a center of various water-based sports, and the Gota Village Resort, which is the leading eco-tourism destination in the world. (more…)
