mayon volcano

Albay
Please like our Facebook Page:

The Mayon Volcano is located in 8 municipalities in Albay -- Camalig, Daraga, Guinobatan, Ligao City, Legazpi City, Tabaco City, Malilipot and Santo Domingo. The volcano is known for its perfect cone, which has gained its popularity among tourists. It was declared as a national park in 1938 and was reclassified as a natural park in 2000. It has derived its name from the local heroine Daragang Magayon, which means beautiful lady.Reference: from tourist staff, from wikipedia.org and from wowlegazpi.com

our experience

It was always cloudy during our visit to Albay. The first day was the most decent view we got of Mayon Volcano. During our last day, Mayon Volcano was not even visible from the airport, which it usually is. Best time to see Mayon Volcano is during summer where the sky would be perfectly clear. I would not suggest to go there during rainy season as it would always be cloudy. Other months would still be okay but it really depends on the weather.

We had our photos taken at the Legazpi Port in front of the Legazpi signage, which I think is one of the best view we got of Mayon Volcano throughout the trip. The view from Sta. Maria Hill was not as clear but still better than the last day.
