Where to stay in Cagayan de Oro
Divisoria
- first-time visitors
- short stays
Divisoria is the central plaza area. Wikivoyage says Plaza Divisoria was built in the early 1900s as a town divider and fire break, and that the downtown Poblacion lies on the eastern side of the Cagayan River. Jeepneys and multicabs, the main local transport per Wikivoyage, include routes to Divisoria, which makes it easy to reach other districts.

Kauswagan
- local feel
- long stays
Kauswagan has a Savemore supermarket branch and lies on R.N. Pelaez Boulevard near the National Highway, according to Wikivoyage. Check the route to your destinations before booking, since Wikivoyage notes that the city has its share of traffic problems and relies on jeepneys, multicabs and motorelas.
Macasandig and Nazareth
- local feel
- long stays
Macasandig and neighbouring Nazareth are barangays where Wikivoyage warns that the street layout makes navigation challenging, so allow extra time and use a map. Wikipedia notes that Macasandig is home to a local chapter of the Bell Church.
Gusa
- local feel
- long stays
Gusa is one of the city's oldest barangays, according to Wikipedia, and was once a municipality in the colonial period. Wikivoyage mentions the National Highway through Gusa, so check how you will get to the places you want to visit.
Getting around Cagayan de Oro
Laguindingan Airport serves the city. Wikivoyage says it is 46 km west of Cagayan de Oro and Wikipedia gives the same distance, with a 4.4-kilometre four-lane access road to the national road. Wikipedia lists metered taxis and shuttle express vans running to the city, and Wikivoyage says shuttles take 45 minutes to an hour from downtown in good traffic. The airport opened on 15 June 2013.
Within the city, Wikivoyage lists jeepneys, multicabs, motorelas, taxis, trisikads and sidecars as the main modes of land transport, and says motorelas, a hybrid of motorcycle and passenger compartment, were invented in Cagayan de Oro. Wikivoyage also notes traffic congestion at peak hours.
Living in Cagayan de Oro for longer
Malls including Centrio, Gaisano City, SM CDO Downtown Premier and Limketkai Center, listed by Wikivoyage, cover everyday shopping, and Wikipedia says Limketkai Center has two supermarket branches. Xavier University and Liceo de Cagayan University are in the city, according to Wikipedia, which may be useful if you are visiting for study or academic work.
For days off, the city government's tourism pages list whitewater kayaking, Macahambus Cave, which marks the site of the Battle of Macahambus on 4 June 1900, and Mapawa Nature Park in Cugman, which it says has waterfalls.

When to visit Cagayan de Oro
Wikipedia describes a tropical monsoon climate with an annual average of 28 °C. It says March and April are the driest months, August and September the wettest, and the rainy season runs from June to November.
Wikivoyage says the Cagayan de Oro River rapids range from class 3 to 4 in the rainy months of September and October, with the rest of the year better for novice rafters. The Higalaay Festival, the city fiesta, takes place in August: Wikipedia describes a week-long celebration for patron saint St Augustine, and the city government says events culminate on 28 August.
