This is an incomplete list of earthquakes in the Philippines of having a magnitude of 6.0 or higher, an intensity of VII or higher, and of any significant earthquake which had caused major damages, deaths, and injured people during its occurrence.

The Philippines lies along the Pacific Ring of Fire, which causes the country to have frequent seismic and volcanic activity. Much larger numbers of earthquakes of smaller magnitude occur very regularly due to the meeting of major tectonic plates in the region.

17th century

  • An intensity VI quake struck Manila on June 25, 1599. The quake had damaged many private buildings and the city and ruined the roof of Sto. Domingo Church.
  • An intensity VIII quake struck Manila on January 2, 1600.
  • A quake struck Manila on January 16, 1601. Earthquake duration lasted about 7 minutes, and aftershocks were experienced the whole year.
  • An intensity VII quake struck Dulag Island and Palo Island, Leyte in December 3, 1608.
  • An intensity IX quake struck Manila on November 1610. It was a terrible quake that progressed from east to west.
  • An intensity IX quake struck Panay Island on 1620. A great casualties numbered in Capiz and Iloilo provinces. The earthquake changed the course of Aklan River and damaged stone churches and facades in Passi, Iloilo.
  • An intensity X quake struck Northern Luzon on 1627. Convulsions were experienced along Cagayan and Ilocos Norte provinces, Bontoc, Lepanto and central Cordillera Central. Other sources claimed that Caraballo Mountains somewhat subsided.
  • An intensity IX quake struck Albay and Camarines[1] on 1628. The quake caused avalanche of ashes, lapilli, water and sand that swept away Albay and Camarines towns.
  • An intensity IX quake struck Illana Bay, Western Mindanao on December 21, 1636. Landslides reported along Illana Bay, Sibuguey Bay and Point Flechas.
  • An intensity X quake struck Northern Luzon on January 4, 1641. The quake occurred after the 1641 eruption of Parker Volcano. Landslides and mudflow destroyed villages in Ilocos provinces, Cagayan and Cordillera Central.
  • A magnitude 7.5 quake struck Luzon on November 30, 1645. The earthquake was then the strongest to hit the islands since the Spanish conquest.[2] It had greatly damaged newly constructed churches and the cathedral in Manila, residential villas and buildings in the city and nearby provinces. A reported 600 people were reported dead.[3]
  • An intensity VIII quake struck Luzon on December 5, 1645. It was a major aftershock of the November 30, 1645 Luzon earthquake, and it had further destroyed remaining buildings in Manila and nearby towns. Aftershocks ceased around March 1646.
  • An intensity IX quake struck Southern Luzon on 1648. It was a very violent earthquake that wrecked many buildings.
  • An intensity VI quake struck Manila on May 1, 1653.
  • An intensity IX quake struck Southern Luzon on August 20, 1658. It was comparable to the 1645 Luzon earthquake, but had caused less damages on building and was less proximity from the epicenter. It had destroyed the Monastery of Santa Clara, several monasteries of the Dominicans and Recollects, Jesuit College and episcopal palaces.[3]
  • An intensity VIII struck Manila on June 19, 1665. Only a Jesuit church experienced great damage. 19 were reported dead.
  • An intensity VIII struck Isla Verde Passage on February 1675. The quake destroyed many buildings in northern Oriental Mindoro and southern Batangas provinces. This led to occurrences of landslides, opening of ground fissures and subsidence of beaches along Mindoro coast.
  • An intensity VII struck Manila on August 24, 1683.

18th century

  • An intensity VII struck Lake Bombon (now known as Taal Lake) on September 24, 1716. It was connected with the eruption of Taal volcano; the constant volcanic activity in the area of Taal caused seismic movements.
  • An intensity IX struck Tayabas (now known as Quezon) on 1730. It had ruined the churches and convent in Mauban and several other churches in the province of Tayabas and Laguna.


The bell tower of the Manila Cathedral after the series of destructive earthquakes of July 1880.
  • An earthquake on June 3, 1863, destroyed the Manila Cathedral, the Ayuntamiento (City Hall), the Governor's Palace (all three located at the time on Plaza Mayor, now Plaza de Roma) and much of the city. The residence of the Governor-General was moved to Malacañang Palace located about 3 km (1.9 miles) up the Pasig River, while the other two buildings were rebuilt in place.
  • An intensity X struck Luzon on July 14–24, 1880.[4] The quake caused severe damage to these major cities in Luzon, most significantly in Manila where a lot of buildings collapsed. Number of casualties are unknown.[3]
  • A quake struck Lucban, Quezon on October 26, 1884. It destroyed churches in Lucban town in Quezon province and Cavinti town in Laguna province.[3]

19th century

1910s

  • A magnitude 7.5 quake struck Northeastern Mindanao on July 11, 1912. Damage and high intensity were experienced by towns of La Paz, Bunauan, Veruela and Talacogon in the Agusan Valley area where intense ground shaking, liquefaction, widespread landslides and river/lake seiches occurred.[5]

1940s

  • An intensity VII earthquake struck Luzon, mainly Isabela on December 29, 1949. Starting at 11:05 a.m., it lasted for 2 and a half minutes. The damage was moderately destructive, causing landslides and sea waves capsizing boats. It also caused fissures that spit out black water. The intensity ranged from IV to VII throughout Luzon.[6]
  • Lady Caycay Earthquake

The earthquake happened on January 25, 1948 at 1:46 AM. Its felt motion lasted from an estimate of one to three minutes and this was followed by a series of felt quakes till 5:52 AM. Gutenberg and Richter located the epicenter at 10.5 N Lat; 122.0 E Long and its magnitude to be 8.2. This location plots in the boundary between the Antique towns of Anini-y and Dao (now called Tobias Fornier). This is the first earthquake event that local residents gave a name to. [7]

In the epicentral town of Anini-y, surprisingly no distinct and severe damage was seen in the century-old church that was built in 1830. Most of the significant damages were found in the province of Iloilo, specifically in still-existing Spanish-era churches. Intensity IX was assigned in this province. Generally speaking, bridges, communication lines, public and private buildings all sustained heavy damages. Five of the churches which collapsed or were so severely damaged that they were eventually demolished had been identified. These were the churches in Igbaras, San Miguel, Oton and Maasin. The belltowers of the churches of the towns of Alimodian, Duenas, Dumangas, Guimbal, Lambunao, San Joaquin and in Jaro and Arevalo districts in Iloilo City collapsed. The calamity claimed 21 people and 43 were injured in the City of Iloilo while total church damages was estimated at Php 200,000 although total damages in the city reached Php 1,000,000. Fish corals from the Iloilo shore towns of Oton to San Joaquin were destroyed by tsunami. Damage was estimated to be P 250,000. The fish corals were detached from the log moorings. The waves did not move inward thereby sparing more damage to life and property [7]

1960s

  • A magnitude of 7.3 quake struck Casiguran, Aurora, on August 2, 1968, at the depth of approximately 31 km. It was considered the most severe and destructive earthquake experienced in the Philippines during the last 20 years. 270 people were reported dead and 261 were injured.[8]

1970s

The damage caused by a tsunami at barangay Tibpuan, Lebak, Mindanao after the 7.9 Moro Gulf earthquake on August 16, 1976.
  • A magnitude 7.0 quake struck Ragay Gulf on March 17, 1973. Calauag, Quezon was the worst hit, as the quake caused 98 houses totally destroyed, and 270 more were partially damaged.[9]
  • A magnitude 7.9 quake struck Mindanao on August 16, 1976. The quake caused a devastating tsunami that had hit the 700 km coastline of the island of Mindanao bordering Moro Gulf in the North Celebes Sea. An estimated 5,000 - 8,000 people died. The major cause of the great number of casualties during the event could be attributed to the fact that the quake happened just after midnight when most people were sleeping; and a great tsunami was spawned, struck the coasts from different directions and caught the people unaware.[10][11]

1980s

  • A magnitude 6.5 quake struck Laoag on August 17, 1983, at a depth of 42 km. The quake has caused death of 16 people and injured 47 persons.[12]

1990s

  • A magnitude 6.8 quake struck Bohol on February 8, 1990. Six fatalities were reported and more than 200 were injured in the event. About 46,000 people were displaced by the event and at least 7,000 among them were rendered homeless. Estimated damage to properties is amounting to 154 million pesos.[13]
  • A magnitude 7.1 quake struck Panay Island on June 14, 1990 at a depth of 15 km. 7 persons perished and 31 others were injured.[14]
  • A magnitude 7.8 quake struck Luzon on July 16, 1990. It caused severe damage to major cities in Luzon: Dagupan City (soil liquefaction), Baguio City, and Cabanatuan City; Hyatt Terraces Baguio collapsed. 1,621 were reported dead. Damage to buildings, infrastructures, and properties amounted to at least P 10 Billion, a part of which was caused by ground rupturing. However, some houses within 1–2 m on either side of the ground rupture survived owing to their light-weight construction while those built of reinforced concrete within this zone suffered partial damage. Damages beyond 2m depended mainly on the structural integrity of the building and effects of local topography and ground conditions.[11][15]
  • A magnitude 7.1 quake struck Mindoro on November 15, 1994 at depth of 15 km. The quake caused a tsunami killed 41 persons and destroyed 1530 houses.[16]
  • A magnitude 5.6 quake struck Bohol on May 27, 1996 at a depth of 4 km. The earthquake did not cause major damages to properties. Damages were confined to poorly built structures and/or old wooden, masonry, limestone walls of houses and buildings, generally due to ground shaking.[17]
  • A magnitude of 5.1 struck Bayugan, Agusan del Sur on June 7 and 9, 1999. The towns of Bayugan and Talacogon were the most devastated.[5]

21st century

2000s

The quake killed people, caused major damage on infrastructures, and buildings. A tsunami alert level 2 was raised due to the quake. The quake also caused a landslide, burying a barangay. More than a thousand of aftershocks were recorded by PHIVOLCS within 2 days since the quake occurred.[25][26][27] According to National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Council, as of February 18, 2012, the death toll have risen to 51 with 62 people still missing, and injuring 112 people. Most deaths came from the city of Guihulngan and La Libertad where landslides occurred. 63, 697 from provinces in Region VII were affected by the quake. 15, 483 houses were partially or totally damaged, and a total of P383 million cost of damages to buildings, roads and bridges, and other infrastructures were recorded.[28]
