There is always something new to discover at the Museo de Catanduanes, a story behind an artifact, a glimpse into the lives of generations before us, or a piece of heritage that helps us better understand the island we call home.

Today, the museum once again welcomed guests who took the time to explore Catanduanes beyond its landscapes and destinations, discovering the history, traditions, and cultural memories that have helped shape the Happy Island.

Because sometimes, discovering a destination begins by understanding its story.

Thank you for making the Museo de Catanduanes part of your journey. May you leave with more than memoriesโ€”may you carry with you a deeper appreciation of Catanduanes and its heritage.

For some couples, the perfect wedding is not found in a bustling city or a grand ballroom, but somewhere peacefulโ€”where the sea is within reach, the surroundings invite you to slow down, and every moment feels a little more meaningful.

Catanduanes offers just that.

As more visitors discover the Happy Island as a destination for lifeโ€™s most memorable occasions, the province continues to welcome guests seeking intimate and meaningful experiences surrounded by nature, tranquility, and the warmth of the Catandunganon spirit.

Recently, the families of a soon-to-be bride and groom, a Filipino and his Ecuadorian fiancรฉe, received a special cultural welcome from the Catandungan Cultural Troupe at Twin Rock Beach Resort this August 18, 2026, where the couple will celebrate their destination wedding in the Happy Island.

More than a welcome, the gesture reflects the provinceโ€™s signature hospitalityโ€”warm, genuine, and deeply rooted in the culture and traditions of the Catandunganon people.

From the first welcome to the moment they say โ€œI do,โ€ may every celebration in the Happy Island be filled with warmth, joy, and memories worth carrying home.

For every guest who walks through its doors, may the experience inspire a deeper appreciation for where we came fromโ€”and a greater desire to help preserve the stories and heritage we carry forward.

August 14, 2026 | The Provincial Capitol Lobby comes alive today with the vibrant flavors, products and creativity of Catanduanes as the Trade Fair opens in support of the 4th Regional Management Committee Meeting of the Department of Education Regional Office V.

Featuring products and offerings from local MSMEs, the trade fair highlights how MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) Tourism can create meaningful opportunities for local enterprises by bringing event participants closer to the products, food, crafts, and other experiences that Catanduanes has to offer.

More than simply hosting meetings and events, MICE tourism can become a platform for local economic, connecting businesses to new markets and turning every gathering into an opportunity to discover, experience, and support what is proudly made and produced in the Happy Island.

Everyone is invited to drop by the Provincial Capitol Lobby, browse through the booths, and discover something local to take home.
