Cordova

Cordova is a municipality located on an island off the southeast coast of Cebu and serves as a small residential community with fishing and farming as primary activities. The settlement spreads across the island with homes and structures concentrated near the shoreline and central areas, reflecting its maritime heritage.

Cordova developed as a fishing community during early settlement times on its island and remained economically dependent on maritime activities for centuries. The municipality grew gradually as agricultural land use and small-scale trade became additional economic pursuits.

The municipality is accessible by water and road from Cebu, with boats and ferries operating regularly between the islands. Visitors should be prepared for weather conditions and tides, as these affect travel, and wear comfortable, practical clothing suitable for a maritime setting.
