The island is the 2nd largest in the Philippines with fabulous natural wonders and heart pumping travel adventure activities but unfortunately even Mindanao top traveler spots are not as visited as the other travel tourism destinations of Luzon and Visayas regions. This is a sad reality due mainly to the 'perceived' degrading peace and order situation that is often attached to the word "mindanao". Yes, there are friction ridden places in Mindanao that is best avoided for those who are only after relaxation travel but there are far more many places where you are as safe as you can be like in any other places and provinces of the Philippines.
The vastness of its land area together with the fact that majority of Mindanao provinces are landlocked, traveling and going nearby the big island to check its tourism hot spots are a lot easier as you can just hop into a car and drive away as opposed to riding boats and braving waves to go nearby the Visayas Region unless of course you are checking out the puny islands of Mindanao.
