Philippines
Basco is a small Philippine city with a population of 7,297. It is served by Basco Airport (BSO), the main air gateway for travellers arriving in the city.
There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of Basco, so the city is not a base for visiting nearby beaches. Basco follows Philippine Time, and its tropical location means travellers should expect warm conditions, with seasonal variations in rainfall and weather.
