Bauang Grape Farms
Bauang Grapes Farms
A rare grape-growing area in the Philippines, where visitors can pick their own grapes during harvest season and taste wine and jam.
A few farms around Santiago in the town of Bauang, including Gapuz, Ancheta and Salino, are among the few places in the Philippines that grow grapes commercially. The tropical climate allows two harvests a year. Visitors can pick grapes from the vines and buy them by weight, as well as wine and jam, which is a novelty for many tourists from tropical countries. Entry is free or costs a small fee, and picking is charged per kilogram. Outside the harvest season, the vines bear no fruit, so check before you go. The farms are about 15 km from San Fernando.
Opening hours
Approx. 07:00–17:00 (picking season)
