Alaminos, officially the City of Alaminos (Pangasinan: Siyudad na Alaminos; Ilocano: Siudad ti Alaminos; Sambal: Babali nin Alaminos; Filipino: Lungsod ng Alaminos), is a 4th class component city in the province of Pangasinan, Philippines, and is known for being the home of the Hundred Islands National Park, which is composed of 124 islands and is located off the coast of Barangay Lucap. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 99,397 people.[3] The city is named after Juan Alaminos y de Vivar, a former governor-general of the Philippines.
In 2009, it was announced that Alaminos Airport would be built near the city as a commercial airport for Pangasinan province.[5] However, the timeline for construction of the airport has repeatedly slipped; as of 2015, the project is in limbo.[6]
