2009 Best Sports Tourism Event in the Philippines

Iloilo Paraw Regatta is the oldest traditional craft event in Asia, and the largest sailing event in the Philippines.
On the Sunday, the thirty-kilometer distance race is sailed on a course in the Iloilo Strait, running up the coast of Panay and then down the coast of Guimaras, before returning to the finish at Villa Beach.
The objective of the Regatta is to celebrate the skills of the paraw sailors, and bring a fiesta spirit into their lives.
