Pawikan Festival
The Pawikan Festival aims to draw awareness for the pawikan and
its nesting site in Morong, Bataan. The pawikans only return to
their place of birth to lay eggs. If they are hindered or unable to
do so, they will stop laying eggs! So preserving their natural
birthing place is extremely important. Otherwise, their species
might go extinct.

The festival is celebrated with Sand Sculpture Contests, Paddle


Painting Contests and a Street Dancing Competition. There are
even Zumba exercises early in the morning, Walk For a Cause
event, and you can even buy local produce at the fair. At night,
there is a beach party where local artists and bands play to
celebrate another successful and safe hatching. As a final
culminating event, the Pawikan Conservation Center releases the
newly hatched baby turtles out to sea. It’s so cute to see the baby
pawikans racing across the beach to get to the great ocean.
