Tourism Currimao, small as it may seen, is blessed with several tourist attractions. These include the Gaang Beach Cove with its wide expanse of unpolluted beaches and tranquil waters which is a by-word of picnickers and beach lovers.
It
boasts also of beach resorts such as D'Coral Beach Resort and Hotel and
the Old Fisherman's Beach Resort which cater to foreign as well as local
tourists. In the fishing town of Currimao, fishermen still use the traditional three-km fishnets and sing the popular Ilocano song "Pamulinawen" to help coordinate net laying and crucial fishing efforts. The Eastern Telecoms Currimao Cable station, built in 1976, can also be found here. Last year, it was converted into a museum. At the foot of the Marcos Bridge is the Tobacco Monopoly Marker. This landmark was constructed to serve as a memorial for the lifting of the Tobacco Monopoly of 1872-1881. Resorts D'Coral Beach Resort Hotel
