The Commodore’s Cup Regatta has been attracting hundreds of top-notch sailors from all over the globe as they converge in this extreme sailing action from the yacht racing capital of the Philippines.
It is one of the most anticipated races in Subic Bay. It comes after Hong Kong’s famous Rolex China Sea Race which finishes in Subic every even year and the San Fernando Race that finishes in San Fernando, La Union every odd year. The CCR is part of the Asian Yachting Grand Prix Circuit which is held in 7 countries (Philippines, Hong Kong, China, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia) and participated by more than 300 boats.
Subic Bay Freeport Zone is the premier destination for yacht racing. As a sailing haven, regular regattas are held in Subic Bay to enhance yachtsmanship for international competitions and foster camaraderie among sailors.
Coming off of its 11th year, the Commodore’s Cup Regatta (CCR) in Subic Bay has evolved to become the paragon of the development of Sailing in the Philippines. The organizers of the event have refined a formula for success that they tweak every year to further enhance the experience not just of the competitors but the spectators as well.
