Abstract

The small islands of Northern Iloilo sit in an area with high fish biodiversity, the Visayan Sea in the Philippines. As one of the traditional fishing grounds of the country, it contributes substantially to the Philippines’ fisheries production. The Visayan Sea covers about 12,520 square kilometers and spans 33 coastal municipalities and cities. The small islands of Concepcion, Iloilo are nestled in the waters of Iloilo Province and have been known to be among the top producers of fisheries products.
