Carmona, Cavite: A Tourist’s Haven in The South

In the bustling province of Cavite lies a new tourist haven– Carmona. Populated by only about 68,135 residents, the town of Carmona has become the place-to-be for people who long for a relaxing weekend  especially because it’s just a stone’s throw away from Metro Manila. Over the years, the town was able to have various businessmen and companies invest in the place. In fact, it is now hailed as the Sports Capital of Cavite, helping increase the province’s tourism rate more significantly. But what exactly made Carmona the perfect place to engage in sports activities? Here are some of the reasons why.

For one, Carmona is home to different golf clubs in the country particularly the ever popular Cavite Golf Club where local as well as foreign golfers can get to enjoy playing in the well-maintained golf course as well as be amazed with the relaxing ambiance and quality services that the club provides. Aside from that, there is also the Manila Southwoods Sports Complex that features facilities for playing sports such as tennis and swimming.

Another popular sports attraction in Carmona is the Carmona Racing Circuit wherein amateurs and professional racers alike can practice and engage in kart racing. As a matter of fact, several Karting events have already been held in the place, much to the delight of the locals and tourists. Furthermore, tourists can also try their luck in the recently-opened PAGCOR Filipino or watch horse derbies in The Manila Jockey Club.

For baseball enthusiasts on the other hand, the Carmona Baseball Academy also provides a venue for both kids and adults to learn to play baseball. It features several baseball equipment for those who wish to practice their swings and catching skills. In addition to its sports facilities, this booming town also offers several places to spend the night in as well as suitable locations to settle for permanent residence. In Carmona lies the first condominium-hotel building in the Philippines called the Manila Southwoods Manor. This hotel/condominium offers high-class amenities and secured facilities, making it the perfect “home away from home” for foreign visitors.

Despite the place’s seemingly obscure location, going around the place is relatively easy as there is a variety of public transportations including jeepneys and tricycles that you can choose from. Taking the jeepney would also provide tourists the experience of using the country’s most common mode of transportation. For those who live outside the city, they can ride the public buses that are often available 24 hours a day.

Over the years, Cavite has transformed from being a quaint little province to becoming one of the busiest metropolis in the South and Carmona’s continuous progression can account for that. With its sports and recreational attractions, Carmona proves to be the next tourist’s haven. It’s definitely a source of pride not just for the people of Cavite but for all Filipinos all over the Philippines and across the globe.
