Subic Bay Philippines Business English Tours

The Subic Watershed Forest Reserve is located at the southern portion of the Zambales Biogeographic Zone, 160 km. northwest of Manila. This reserve is one of the ten priority sites of the National Protected Areas and is noted for its high biodiversity and endemism. This lowland dipterocarp forest covers approximately 9,800 hectares, 3,000 hectares of which is closed canopy.

The reserve lies entirely within the bounds of the Subic Bay Freeport Zone which has administrative jurisdiction over these protected areas. The SBMA Authority has an Ecology Center that studies and monitors the preservation of the Subic Bay's natural resources and wildlife.

A wide range of habitats are present in the forest due to the terrain, presence of streams, fringing grasslands and other breaks in the canopy. It is possible to draw an imaginary line through the rain forest, running water, grassland and mangrove habitats that blend into the marine seagrass and coral reef habitats. These represent the major habitats of the tropics.

The forest biodiversity survey revealed 745 plant species. Ecologically and economically important tree species such as White Lauan, Apitong, Guijo, Palosapis are most dominant in Subic forest. A rattan palm species previously found only in Mt. Arayat was discovered.

At the southwest portion of the reserve is a well maintained network of paved roads. The reserve is linked to the rest of the Freeport Zone by a two-lane road intersected by a narrower road leading to the municipality of Morong, Bataan. This area has been reserved for low-impact, eco and adventure tourism oriented development.

The Subic Bay Marine Exploratorium project is taking shape. The Camayan Wharf is now home to Subic Bay Ocean Adventure, the first and the most amazing attraction in the country exibiting some of the world's most attractive sea mammals like dolphins, false killer whales and sea lions in their natural habitat.

The western side of Grande and Chiquita Islands contains the highest coral cover in the bay with up to 75% of which are living. There are 75 species of fish present in Subic Bay. Important reef fish species comprises 96.25%. The world's rare and endangered Olive Ridley turtle and Hawksbill dwell in Subic Bay. Six species of seagrasses are growing in the marine preserved areas of Triboa and Ilanin Bays.
