Catagman is located on the western coast of Samal Island (IGACOS) and serves as a premier getaway for residents and tourists in the Davao region. The area is characterized by a string of high-quality resorts, including the upscale Bali-Bali Beach Resort and the family-oriented Rocky Beach Resort. Diving and snorkeling are major draws here, with Sea Grass Beach Resort and Vista Roberta Beach Resort providing excellent access to underwater biodiversity. For a more botanical experience, La Vida Orchard Resort has a lush, green environment. Day trippers often flock to Flores Beach Resort and Punta del Sol Beach Resort to enjoy the sun and the calm waters of the Davao Gulf. Local dining features fresh seafood and the region's famous durian. Reaching Catagman is simple via a short ferry or barge ride from Davao City’s Sasa Wharf, followed by a quick tricycle ride across the island’s scenic coastal roads.
