Tags: embarcadero de legazpi, slider
Embarcadero de Legazpi is a premier waterfront development in the Legazpi City harbor that is emerging as a world-class lifestyle hub both for tourists and the locals. It has become Bicol region’s premier urban mall and shopping center that gives you an array of lifestyle options –whether for dining, shopping, or entertainment.
Embarcadero redeems the glory days of the Legazpi City port district, which was once the region’s melting pot of economic activity as Spanish trading galleons used to dock in it. Today, it is opening doors for new investments –bringing in stores and brands that never found its way to this small coastal city.
More than venues for dining, shopping, and entertainment, Embarcadero is home to one-of-a-kind adventures like water sports. It is not your typical mall as partygoers can enjoy parasailing, Jet Ski, paddle boat, water jeep, and even helicopter rides for a panoramic view of Mayon Volcano and the cityscape.
Embarcadero de Legazpi. It’s where new and exciting breakthroughs happen.

Dining and Shopping
This commercial hub being likened to the Fisherman’s Wharf of San Francisco, California offers a wide range of food choices–from fast food to fine dining. Fast food joints and Cafes include Kitaro Sushi, La Mia Tazza, Mang Inasal, Bigg’s Diner, Gerry’s Grill, Pacific Blue Dive Center and Cafe, Gillian’s Sea Wharf and more! It has recently opened Cisyd Bar Resto Paluto, the first “dampa” style restaurant in the city, located at the mall’s seaside promenade.
True to its concept as a “lifestyle mall” more than a mere “shopping mall”, several shops have opened at Embarcadero including Sandugo, Cinderella, Bratpack, F2M, and ResToeRun. There’s even a premium brands store that offers genuine posh signature bags like Chanel, Gucci, and Hermes that one could only find either in Manila or abroad. The Embarcadero also hosts the city’s first Puregold Supermarket.

Adventures and activities
For adventure-seekers, the mall now offers several activities such as 350-meter zipline from a lighthouse, kart race, and segway. Segways are two-wheeled, self-balancing electric vehicles. The segways at Embarcadero are the first in the country. Other exciting activities include parasailing, Jet Ski, paddle boat, and water jeep. Soon, helicopter rides will be offered for those who want to capture a panoramic view of Mt. Mayon and the Albay Gulf. A modern bowling lane is also guaranteed to provide loads of fun for families and groups of friends.
Accommodations
As a veritable one-stop shop, Embarcadero also offers a marine-themed hotel called Ellis Ecotel. The luxurious yet affordable hotel offers guests the illusion of seafaring while taking in the breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and the looming Mayon Volcano.
Health and Relaxation
Embarcadero is also the home of the Suncore Diagnostic Clinic and the Excelsior Spa.
Events and festivities
The mall’s spacious round Celebration Plaza, which is at the heart of the commercial building, is a favorite venue for events. The 1,050-square-meter venue hosted the city’s first international concert featuring balladeer David Pomeranz. In 2010, it hosted the Amazing Race Asia Season 4 Viewing Party celebrating episode 5 which featured Albay as a pit stop of the popular reality TV show.
Embarcadero also hosts nightly events at the Celebration Plaza like band competitions, pageants, dance contents, and boxing tournaments, making it the city’s official entertainment rendezvous for all classes.

Climbing Up to Mayon’s Base Camp
Climbing up to the summit of the Philippines’s most active volcano is truly an experience of a lifetime. Climbing up to the level close to the summit or an area commonly referred to as the knife’s edge is for the intermediate-expert climber or for one who is very fit. It normally takes two days and one night to reach the summit and it is essential that one have a competent and knowledgeable local guide.

by:bum jay rearte…thanks for make,beutyful legazpi city…. god bleesssss…
heloww..where can I apply a job that related to food service like hotel and restaurant? I’m a fresh graduate of B.U. I can work as FnB staff and assistant cook. I have an experience in fine dinning during my OJT in Hotel Venezia.
wow!!! i must work hard to earn big money for our next visit there …good job!!!!siramon!!
Nice! but there’s a lot to work with…Hopefully sana madagdagan ang stalls…I mean kulang kasi ng mga pwedeng bilhan ng RTW’s. just like when you’re going to shopping… dapat madami ka rin pwede pamilian…Saka I heard medyo may kamahalan kapag namili ka sa Embarcadero… and not supposed to be because how can you compete with LCC and Pacific Mall kung same thing lang naman ang makikita mo then mas mataas pa ang presyo.
Hopefully sana magbukas ang Yellow Cab and Starbucks just like what we have seen on the Perspective!
Honestly, I’ve known a lot kung bakit may Embarcadero tayo..its a Good work of Mayor Rosal..and i think tama yung ginawa nya..(but not to others, because may problema kapag nalaman ng publiko)..to promote the tourism aspect in legazpi..to generate jobs for Legazpenos.
ang ganda tlga ng embarcadero.. =)

i think po…kelangan po ung maramihang pagbubukas ng mga boutiques…kasi po kung konti lang ung bumukas na boutique, magsasawa dun ang tao at lalo silang mabobore…kaya magiging negative impression ng tao…
kinakalawang na nga po pala ung mga bakal ng embarkz dun sa may second floor…sa may dating mini ferris wheel…
sana po masolusyunan…thanks po…

Can’t wait na to visit the new legazpi.. see on July! Dex ipasyal mo kami ha!!!
i was so overwhelmed to know that Legaspi has finally emerged as one of the top tourist destinations in the Philippines… particularly becoz of Embarcadero’s rise to popularity… last week it was my first time to take a leisurely walk at the boulevard… it was a superb experience being so close to nature – basking in it’s beauty and tranquility… today we came back — with so much disappointment – there were litters everywhere along the seaside – as a concerned citizen i want to reach out to the management of embarcadero to take into consideration this matter seriously…. They should have a strict program regarding the cleanliness surrounding the area so as to maintain it’s beauty and to help protect nature especially Albay Gulf… and most especially sa ating mga kababayan – binigyan tayo ng magandang pasyalan… sna naman pangalagaan natin ito …pairalin natin ang disiplina sa kalinisan… para sa ating lahat naman ito…
ang sakin lng, cno ba talaga ang my ari ng embarcadero? para dun natin sa kaya sabihin kung ano ang dapat gawin, kac c Rosal, Mayor lng sya, d nya pag aari ang legaspi,….maganda nga ang embarcadero de legaspi, wala nmang umaamin kung kanino.. saka sana nman, pagandahin ung 1 lugar ung walang nasasagasaan….un lng po…

Tama habang pinagaganda sana ang Legaspi samahan na rin ng pagmamalasakit ng mga mamamayan katulong ng mga opisyal ng bayan. Hindi ako taga Legaspi pero yan ang pinaka sentro ng domersyo namin mula pa ng kabataan ko.
Maraming magagaling sa atin hindi lang siguro natatap. Bilang isang bikolanang ligaw dito sa California gusto kong umuwi at manirahan for good dyan sa Legaspi and spend the “twilight of my life” amidst the nice people of Bikol.
Kung and Embarcadero ay nagbibigay sa atin ng maipagmamalaking accomplishment then let us all be part owner by maintaining the cleanliness, patronizing it, and be proud of it.
One thing I want to point out is the suggestion of another friend that we should propagate what we have. Legaspi is a seaside city, therefore, it is expected to have seafoods as part of the main cuisine prevalent in the area. Can we have diners with crabs, shrimps and lobsters as their main “attraction”?
Thank you very much. I’m so looking forward for a chance to visit the city in the near future.
