Sun Cruises,
Inc. (SCI) traces its beginnings in August 1988 as a ferry service to
the historical island of Corregidor.
This initial ferrying service expanded to include guided tours and
hotel accommodations within the island when the management of
Corregidor Inn, Corregidor Resort and Corregidor Hostel came under its
wing. Sun Cruises acquired the MV Sun Cruises II, a 293 Catamaran ferry
boat.
Sun Cruises believe in quality, value, and reliability
The tours at Corregidor are carefully planned to include visits to
places of interest and panoramic drives through areas of natural beauty
with historical value. There is also a wide variety of adventure and
fun activities on the island to choose from. There's so much to look
forward to!
The accomodations more than adequately provide quality service to ensure a pleasant stay.
Every little detail is given attention to achieve the right balance
between scheduled activities and free time. You can look forward to
what could probably be your greatest vacation ever.
Sun Cruises commitment is your guarantee of satisfaction
Today, Sun Cruises continues to provide ferrying services, tours and
hotel accommodations to Corregidor, a continuing process of making
history your personal adventure.
orregidor
is known the world over for its role in war, bravery, and history. It
is three miles long and 1 ½ miles at its widest point, facing the China
Sea and flanked by the provinces of Bataan and Cavite. A rock island
remarkably shaped like a tadpole at the entrance of Manila Bay,
Corregidor's strategic location was vital in the defense of Manila
during World War II.
The name
'Corregidor' came from the Spanish 'corregir', or 'to correct', since
the island was a checkpoint for vessels entering Manila Bay during the
Spanish and American occupations. Perhaps it is Corregidor's
geographical proximity to Bataan and existing inaccurate historical
writings that cause many to associate the rock island with the Death
March, which came shortly after the Fall of Bataan.
Corregidor became the headquarters of the Allied Forces and also the
seat of the Philippine Commonwealth government. It was from Corregidor
that Philippine Pres. Manuel Quezon and MacArthur left for Australia
in February leaving behind Lt. Gen. Jonathan M. Wainwright in command.
Today, Corregidor's rich history continues to draw Filipinos and
foreign tourists alike, making the island one of the most visited
tourist spots in the country. For first-time Filipino visitors,
Corregidor reacquaints them with the past and helps them discover their
national identity. The island is home to many historical treasures.
