People likely experienced very weak shaking there. Several smaller towns and villages are located closer to the epicenter and might have experienced stronger shaking. In the capital of the  Philippines, Manila, 296 km (184 mi) away from the epicenter, the earthquake could not be felt.The following table shows some of the places that might have been affected (or not) by the shaking.DistancePlaceMax. shaking intensity(*)RegionCountry84 km (52 mi)E of epicenterCatuday(pop: 2,150)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines85 km (53 mi)SE of epicenterMacabuboni(pop: 2,460)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines94 km (58 mi)SE of epicenterBangan-Oda(pop: 3,460)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines95 km (59 mi)E of epicenterZaragoza(pop: 7,390)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines98 km (61 mi)SE of epicenterIlioilio(pop: 2,120)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines98 km (61 mi)E of epicenterAnda(pop: 3,160)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines106 km (66 mi)SE of epicenterDasol(pop: 3,890)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines106 km (66 mi)E of epicenterAlaminos(pop: 10,500)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines121 km (75 mi)SE of epicenterAgoo(pop: 29,000)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines124 km (77 mi)SE of epicenterSanta Cruz(pop: 66,600)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines134 km (84 mi)E of epicenterSan Fernando(pop: 83,000)II: Very weakProvince of La Union, IlocosPhilippines135 km (84 mi)E of epicenterPayocpoc Sur(pop: 13,100)II: Very weakProvince of La Union, IlocosPhilippines136 km (84 mi)E of epicenterBauang(pop: 77,700)II: Very weakProvince of La Union, IlocosPhilippines136 km (84 mi)SE of epicenterDomalanoan(pop: 15,100)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines137 km (85 mi)SE of epicenterLingayen(pop: 56,600)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines139 km (86 mi)SE of epicenterBugallon(pop: 12,000)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines139 km (86 mi)E of epicenterAringay(pop: 29,800)II: Very weakProvince of La Union, IlocosPhilippines140 km (87 mi)E of epicenterBinmaley(pop: 44,000)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines145 km (90 mi)SE of epicenterMasinloc(pop: 56,600)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines146 km (91 mi)E of epicenterDagupan(pop: 171,300)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines150 km (93 mi)E of epicenterNibaliw Central(pop: 13,600)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines150 km (93 mi)E of epicenterCalasiao(pop: 100,700)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines151 km (94 mi)E of epicenterBangar(pop: 11,100)II: Very weakProvince of La Union, IlocosPhilippines152 km (94 mi)E of epicenterMangaldan(pop: 88,800)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines154 km (96 mi)E of epicenterSanta Barbara(pop: 15,400)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines155 km (96 mi)E of epicenterTagudin(pop: 35,800)II: Very weakProvince of Ilocos Sur, IlocosPhilippines155 km (96 mi)SE of epicenterMangatarem(pop: 12,400)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines155 km (96 mi)E of epicenterSanta Maria(pop: 28,000)II: Very weakProvince of Ilocos Sur, IlocosPhilippines156 km (97 mi)SE of epicenterUrbiztondo(pop: 12,700)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines156 km (97 mi)SE of epicenterBulog(pop: 11,100)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines160 km (100 mi)SE of epicenterAmungan(pop: 12,400)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines161 km (100 mi)E of epicenterManaoag(pop: 59,100)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines165 km (103 mi)SE of epicenterIba(pop: 26,900)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines169 km (105 mi)SE of epicenterBayambang(pop: 129,500)II: Very weakProvince of Pangasinan, IlocosPhilippines171 km (106 mi)SE of epicenterBotolan(pop: 23,000)II: Very weakProvince of Zambales, Central LuzonPhilippines172 km (107 mi)SE of epicenterCamiling(pop: 39,700)II: Very weakProvince of Tarlac, Central LuzonPhilippines184 km (114 mi)NE of epicenterVigan(pop: 48,500)I: Not feltProvince of Ilocos Sur, IlocosPhilippines184 km (115 mi)NE of epicenterBantay(pop: 37,100)I: Not feltProvince of Ilocos Sur, IlocosPhilippines223 km (139 mi)SE of epicenterBabo-Pangulo(pop: 15,100)I: Not feltProvince of Pampanga, Central LuzonPhilippines296 km (184 mi)SE of epicenterManila(pop: 1,600,000)I: Not feltCapital, National Capital RegionPhilippinesNotes:(*) Shaking intensity according to the Modified Mercalli Intensity Scale (MMI) and estimated using seismic models.User-reports for this quakeThere are no user reports for this quake yet.If you felt it, be the first to report it!Get the Android appCompare Quake DataData for the same earthquake as reported by different agenciesThe more agencies report about the same quake and post similar data, the more confidence you can have in the data.

When aftershocks are detected, we will update this section.What are aftershocks?Larger earthquakes (above magnitude 5 or so) such as this one are usually followed by smaller ones known as aftershocks that occur in the same area during the days, weeks, months or even years after the main shock.[More info]What about this quake?Based on its magnitude, the fault that was active during the quake likely ruptured beneath a surface area of approximately 1 km2 (0 square miles) as a first-order estimate. The length of the rupture zone thus was probably around 2 km (1 mi).[More info]Recorded aftershocks, latest first (0 quake)Jun 24, 2026 01:53 pm (Universal Time)15 minutes ago4.021 km0 km - This quakeLuzon, PhilippinesMain Shock (this quake)MoreMap of aftershocksEarthquake statisticsAverage number of earthquakesBased on data from the past 56 years and our earthquake archive back to 1900, there are about 111 quakes on average per year in the area near the epicenter of this quake (within 100 km/61 mi):Mag. 6 or higher: 0.03 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 31.3 years)Mag. 5 or higher: 0.54 quakes per year (or 1 quake every 1.8 years)Mag. 4 or higher: 10.1 quakes per yearMag. 3 or higher: 42 quakes per year (or 3.5 quakes per month)Mag. 2 or higher: 105 quakes per year (or 8.8 quakes per month)Mag. 1 or higher: 116 quakes per year (or 9.7 quakes per month)The area where this quake occurred has a high level of seismic activity. It has had at least 4 quakes above magnitude 6 since 1900, which suggests that larger earthquakes of this size occur infrequently, probably on average approximately every 30 to 35 years.Number of quakes per yearPrevious quakes in the same area of this earthquake
