Tuna Festival

General Santos City's Tuna Festival is a must-see attraction. Because of the quantity of tuna fish, the city is also known as the "Philippines' Tuna Capital."

Yellowfin tuna fish abound in the waterways surrounding the city, making it one of the top tuna producers in the world. Furthermore, General Santos is regarded as a world-class tuna supply. It's no surprise that the residents painstakingly organized the Tuna Festival.

This is a tuna-themed festival and the place to go if you want to appreciate tuna cuisine. One of the most amazing aspects of the festival is the tuna dish cooking competition. Before heading to the street carnivals, fill up on wonderfully grilled tuna and watch the vibrant natives dance to melodious sounds.
