Bagabag: Gaddang Weaving, Beadwork and Snacks

Bagabag offers several specific points of interest for planning a trip: traditional Gaddang weaving techniques, Inansi beadwork, local sweet snacks and open-air camping. They appeal to different interests, so it is worth considering which focus matters most for your stay.

Gaddang Weaving and Inansi Beadwork

The NueHABIzcaya Weaving Circuit was launched in 2026 and takes tourists to Myrna Aban Handicrafts in Bagabag. If you would like to include this in your travel plans, check with the provincial tourism office to confirm whether the tour is currently operating.

At Myrna Aban Handicrafts, demonstrations of traditional Gaddang weaving techniques on a loom are part of what is offered. The focus is on the weaving itself: a demonstration showcases the craft process, while a finished piece draws attention to the result. If the demonstration is important to your plans, ask in advance whether it is currently available.

Jewelry and headwear featuring Inansi beadwork are also sold at Myrna Aban Handicrafts. Myrna Aban is also a practitioner of the traditional Inansi beadwork craft. The items for sale offer a different focus from the loom demonstration: they showcase beadwork on finished pieces. Ask before your visit whether the items are currently available.

Sweet Snacks from Bagabag

Roadside shops in Bagabag sell buko, mango, ube and pineapple pies, as well as various sweet snacks. The four types of pie mentioned make the local food connection concrete: instead of looking only in general for regional dishes, you can consider these varieties as distinct options. The other sweet snacks complement the pies and offer a different reason to visit than the handicrafts. If local food options matter when choosing your destination, these products provide a tangible point of reference.

An Overnight Stay in the Open Air

Humming Strawberry Farm offers open-air camping stays. This adds a distinct type of accommodation to interests in handicrafts and food, one that differs from looking for a hotel. If a night outdoors fits your plans, confirm the details and current availability directly with the operator before making your plans based on it.

Reasons to Visit and Finding Accommodation

When choosing a destination, it helps to weigh the different areas of interest against one another. A weaving demonstration focuses on traditional Gaddang techniques at the loom; jewelry and headwear showcase Inansi beadwork on finished items. Pies and sweet snacks offer a culinary focus, while camping makes the overnight stay itself the main draw. These aspects appeal to different interests, and you can weigh them according to your priorities. If you are looking for hotels in Bagabag, first consider which of these draws makes the town interesting to you; then you can match your personal requirements to a specific hotel offer.
