Oriental Mindoro is a tropical paradise in the South with unspoiled natural beauty. The province takes pride in its white sand beaches, clear blue waters, coral reefs in varied colors, cool rushing rivers, hidden waterfalls, lush green forests covering majestic mountains and an island destination worth discovering, exploring and experiencing. In its effort to rejuvenate and breathe new life into the province's tourism industry which was severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Provincial Government of Oriental Mindoro teamed up with the Department of Tourism (DOT) - Tourism Promotions Board for the formal launch of the Travel Oriental Mindoro mobile application and website.

Meanwhile, Oriental Mindoro Governor Hon. Humerlito Dolor stated that tourism in the province has suffered the most in terms of jobs lost, closed establishments and over 600,000 potential tourists due to the pandemic. He said in a post-pandemic setting, the website and mobile app would help and guide local and foreign tourists in search for historical and panoramic destinations, restaurants and lodgings within the province.
