Abuyog, Leyte

The old, historic and quaint town of Abuyog is the largest municipality on the eastern coast of Leyte facing Leyte Gulf and the open Pacific Ocean. Located 62 kilometers south of Tacloban City, the 1st class municipality is but an hour’s drive along the Maharlika Highway - a leisurely getaway to the countryside on a lazy afternoon.
