Tourism
Tourism is a dynamic and growing industry. San Nicolas is becoming the province’s most visited by local and international tourists owing it to the town’s rich and preserved culture and structures, business and employment opportunities, culinary, ecology and small-scale industries such as pottery, dapil and blacksmith.
Tourism has become one of the strongest propellers of economy in the country. The local government is trying its best to intensify the impact of tourism both local and international as evidenced by the numerous visits of different agencies, municipalities and cities and international tourists. As a result, many investors are encouraged to invest and create opportunities that can make a statement in our economy.
Besides growth and jobs creation, tourism plays an important role in the development of San Nicolas. Infrastructure created for tourism purposes contributes to local development, and jobs are created or maintained even in areas in industrial and commercial zones.
