Dipolog is the capital city of the province of Zamboanga del Norte, the province that occupies the northern part of Zamboanga Peninsula in the Mindanao island of the Philippines. It is commonly known as the "Bottled Sardines Capital" due to its sardine production, and most popularly the "Gateway to Western Mindanao" being accessible from Dumaguete, Cebu, and Manila.

Understand

Get around

Rizal Avenue in Downtown Dipolog, 2019

Do as the locals do, and take a tricycle ride around the city.

Dipolog has no taxis unlike in mostly urbanized cities in the Philippines. There are some jeepneys going to nearby towns but, unlike other cities, there are no jeepneys with general-purpose downtown routes. Most in-town transit is by either motorcycle with sidecar rigs called tricycles, or passenger-type motorcycles locally called habal-habal.

Locals in the Philippines name a landmark or commercial establishment near their destinations, street names are rarely used or known. Many travelers will be able to get around knowing only the names of some few landmarks including Dipolog Boulevard, Lee Plaza, Plaza Magsaysay, and Dipolog Cathedral; most other places of interest are within easy walking distance of one of those.

Splurge

Stay safe

Dipolog is generally a safe city. There are enough beggars and touts to be annoying, but by Asian standards these problems are relatively mild. Police are quite visible, especially along Dipolog Boulevard.

You do see evidence that locals are concerned about security. Many of the larger old houses and more-or-less all the new luxury housing are in walled compounds, and barbed wire, spikes or broken glass to discourage people from climbing the walls are common, as are bars to keep burglars from entering windows. Most businesses have roll-down metal doors for protection when they are closed. Many businesses and some residential compounds have armed guards. Guards at the entrances to many department stores or malls use metal-detecting wands to scan customers before entry. All of this, however, is true in most areas of the Philippines, and much of it is common to most low-income countries.

Traffic can be distinctly hectic, especially in Quezon Avenue in Miputak during the day; there are few traffic lights and few stop signs in the city (mostly outside the downtown area,) and you only occasionally see traffic enforcers directing traffic. Most of the oddities of Asian driving are seen in Dipolog: running without lights at night is common, motorcycles fairly often do interesting things like going down the wrong side of the road or ignoring one-way traffic signs, and so on. On the positive side, the traffic is not remarkably fast, there are few traffic jams and, compared to some other Asian cities, Dipolog has fewer drivers who seem obviously insane to Western observers.

Pedestrians should be quite cautious in Dipolog. The traffic is dangerous, some roads lack sidewalks, and even if there is a sidewalk, it may be blocked by parked motorcycles. Both roads and sidewalks are often seriously uneven — some have holes that could easily break a leg, and many more could turn an ankle — so it is essential to watch your step.

As in any tropical area, there is risk of sunburn; it is quite important for newly arrived visitors to exercise caution.

Stay healthy

Zamboanga del Norte Medical Center in Barangay Sicayab.

Health risks in Dipolog are not large but, as for most travel, it is worth checking with your doctor and possibly getting some vaccines before setting out. The area is tropical, so see also hot weather and tropical diseases.

The city has many health services — doctors, dentists, pharmacies, optometrists — and, as elsewhere in the Philippines and indeed most of Asia, these services are often much cheaper than in higher-income countries. There are exceptions when imported products, such as dental implants or certain drugs, are required for the treatment.

Dentists

These are the many dentists the local expatriates use. Implants are generally expensive, but most services are cheap by Western standards. Some of these dentists may or may not offer procedures under general anesthesia.

  • 2 Drs. J Balagbagan and Aimee Te (Dental Plaza), 3rd Floor, Lee Plaza City Central, Quezon Avenue, Miputak. 
  • 3 Dr. Jedy Sorronda (Sorronda Dental Suite), Ground Floor, Dr. Johnny I. Franco Medical Arts Building, Ospital ng Kabataan ng Dipolog, Padre Ramon Street, Miputak. (updated Feb 2022)
  • 4 Dr. Karen Yu-Bation (Dental Horizon), Magsaysay Street, Miputak, ☏ +63 961-828-0525. (updated Feb 2022)

Hospitals, clinics, and other services

As of October 2020, the city has four hospitals, with a fifth under construction:

  • 5 Corazon C. Aquino Hospital, Circumferential Road, Biasong, ☏ +63 65 212 5555. A public hospital, owned and operated by the City Government of Dipolog. Corazon C. Aquino Hospital on Wikipedia (updated Nov 2020)
  • 6 Zamboanga del Norte Medical Center, Circumferential Road, Biasong, ☏ +63 65 212 2333. A public hospital, owned and operated by the Provincial Government of Zamboanga del Norte. Zamboanga del Norte Medical Center on Wikipedia (updated Nov 2020)
  • 7 Ospital ng Kabataan ng Dipolog, Inc., 604 Padre Ramon Street, Estaka, ☏ +63 65 212 2837. A multi-specialty hospital in Zamboanga del Norte. (updated Feb 2022)
  • 8 Zamboanga del Norte Service Cooperative Hospital, Dipolog-Polanco-Oroquieta National Road, Turno, ☏ +63 65 212 2444, +63 65 212 6990. A multi-specialty hospital in Zamboanga del Norte. (updated Nov 2020)

Pharmacies

Just like any Philippine city, Dipolog has a variety of pharmacies that offer medications of good quality, whether branded or generic.

  • 9 Dipolog Lourdes Pharmacy, Rizal Avenue, Central (walking distance from Dipolog Central Public Market). (updated Dec 2021)
  • 10 Generika Drugstore Lacaya St., Lacaya Street, Central (walking distance from Dipolog Central Public Market), ☏ +63 936 528 6196. (updated Nov 2020)

  • 12 Mercury Drug Dipolog City Rizal Ave., Rizal Avenue, Central, ☏ +63 65 212 6197. (updated Nov 2020)

  • 14 LKS Pharmacy and Convenience Store General Luna, General Luna Street corner F. Herrera Street (formerly Katipunan Street), Estaka (walking distance from Dipolog City Hall and Plaza Magsaysay). (updated Nov 2020)

Connect

Internet service is generally good; Dipolog is one of the hubs of the fiber optic network that connects the country. Most hotels and many restaurants offer free Wi-Fi; connection speed is good for text, photos and most graphics, but music or video streaming may be jerky oftentimes.

There are a number of fairly large Internet cafés; they cater mainly to people playing online games, so they provide reasonably powerful computers with decent screens and a fast connection.

Cell phone connections are fast and reliable anywhere in the city itself or in central areas of the major suburbs, but can be quite flaky in some outlying areas.

Cope

Government offices

In need of access to government services while on travel?

Smoking

Cigarette and electronic cigarette or vape smoking is not encouraged in Dipolog; a city ordinance[dead link] prohibits smoking in public places, particularly in government-owned structures and offices, hospitals, gasoline stations, schools, and business establishments, and there are officers on scooters who give out tickets for this. Violators are penalized the amounts of ₱1000 for first offense, ₱2000 for second offense, ₱3000 for third offense, and imprisonment for 6 months or as determined by local courts for subsequent offences. However, a few bars have smoking areas where nicotine addicts can indulge.

Go next

Nearby cities are Dapitan, Pagadian, Ipil, Zamboanga City, Oroquieta, and Ozamiz; there are buses to and from Dipolog. The Dipolog-Zamboanga via Ipil bus route passes through several places that may be worth a stop.

Although the Pulauan Port in Dapitan is commonly used, Dipolog through the Galas Port can be reached to and from Dumaguete and Cebu through water transport.
