The best of Sugbo Mercado Market

First to open was the Sugbo Mercado Market, an open-air food market that showcases the best of Cebu's exciting gastronomic scene. With a wide array of food stalls, visitors indulged in an unforgettable journey reflecting Cebu's rich food heritage, which is now gaining wider attention as a global culinary treasure.

What sets Sugbo Mercado Market apart is its refined and diverse range of homegrown talent and flavors. The food vendors here represent the best in Cebu who have honed their skills through various platforms and are ready to share their creations on a world-class stage like Seagrove.

Roll your way to big fun in Mactan

In addition to the delectable food offerings, Seagrove will open Cebu's first Roll Park, a skate and bike park designed for active people and sports enthusiasts. With its scenic and dedicated areas, Roll Park provides a safe and exciting arena for bikers, skateboarders, and rollerbladers.

Roll Park features various ramps, jumps, and obstacles for all skill levels. The park also offers bamboo bike rentals during special weekends, ensuring that everyone can enjoy the thrill of biking and skating.

Up and coming nature haven

The opening is just the first phase of what awaits visitors at Seagrove. Seagrove's expansive mangrove forest and wealth of seaside natural attractions are a balm for the soul and a feast for the senses. Here, seaside cafes, boutiques, and restaurants will give way to bike paths, iconic art installations, extensive shady tree-lined walkways, various water features, adventure play spaces, and spectacular views of Magellan Bay.

In the tradition of Ayala Land's integrated, mixed-use developments, Seagrove will offer world-class leisure estate features: a coastal boardwalk, a nature park, an expansive mangrove forest, a nature-inspired pedestrian corridor, art installations by renowned artists, and a full range of experiences and services for discerning guests.

A standout feature is Seagrove's commitment to sustainability and environmental conservation. The estate strictly follows eco-friendly principles, incorporating green spaces, energy-saving solutions, and effective waste management, among other green features.
