Salomague Island is Cabugao’s main attraction because of its powdery white sand beaches on the west and east sides.
Today’s Cabugao is one of the highly-urbanized towns in the province of Ilocos Sur. Its more than 35,000 residents are engaged mostly in farming, fishing and trade. It still has yet to tap its huge eco-tourism potential, but at present it is just content with the title “Surfing Capital of Ilocos Sur.”
