Mandaue lies between Cebu City and the airport island of Mactan and forms part of the Metro Cebu conurbation. It is heavily industrial, and is the manufacturing centre of the region, particularly for furniture.
The city is industrial rather than a destination, though its old church holds an image of considerable local devotional importance. Cebu City with its Spanish-era fort and basilica lies southwest, and the diving and beaches of Mactan and the northern islands are just beyond.
Jeepneys and ride-hailing cover the city, and bridges connect to Mactan island and the airport. Traffic across Metro Cebu is heavy for much of the day.
The dry months from around January to May are the most comfortable and the best for diving. The wet season brings typhoons and heavy rain to the Visayas.
