Glan has become the most visited tourist destination in Region 12, according to Governor Solon. Mahin is a festival unique to the town of Glan which brings back traditional beach activities the townsfolk have been fond of doing since then like horse racing at the shoreline. Mahin is a Blaan word for "beach" signifying the tranquility, calmness, and mystery of water. During the festival, which runs from April 24-26, various advocacies and beach games are staged including the "Oplan Karagatan", a clean-up drive, mangrove planting and rehabilitation, beach ballgames, bancarera, jetski competition, Lumba Bugsay, Lumba Langoy, and others.
