Mindoro Island, which is in the Luzon islands group, is 10571.8 km2 and the total population of the island is 1,4 million.
Mindoro, the seventh largest island in the Philippines, is a mountainous and rugged island. The Mindoro Island, situated in the
triangle formed by Luzon, Palawan and Panay islands, is one of the most visited and most popular tourism centers of the
Philippines. In this study, the geographical location, natural and human geographical features of the island of Mindoro, as well as
the tourist attractions and tourism advantages are briefly discussed. The main purpose of the study is to acquaint a wide range of
readers with tourism resources, tourism potential, natural and cultural tourist attractions of Mindoro Island and offer new
options for recreation for curious tourists. The paper provides a multivariate analysis of tourism on the island by discussing
the tourism advantages and disadvantages of Mindoro Island. As a result of the study, the authors have prepared a useful
tourist guide for foreign tourists who will visit the island. It was revealed that Mindoro Island is not as big as Luzon, it is not
as crowded as Mindanao, it does not have as many luxurious tourist spots as Boracay, and it cannot be said that it is a famou s
tourist destination like Palawan Island. However, this tropical island attracts thousands of holidaymakers from all over the
world every year due to its unique natural beauty and breathtaking tourist attractions. Mindoro Island can offer an alternati ve
travel option, an exciting travel itinerary and an interesting travel destination for every curious tourist 365 days a year.
