Watermelon Types in the Philippines

There are several kinds of watermelon you may come across, and which watermelon variety you find in the Philippines depends on the season and the seller. These are the main watermelon types, including red watermelon, yellow watermelon, seedless watermelon and the rarer orange watermelon.

Yellow Watermelon (Pakwan na Dilaw)

A yellow watermelon looks like a regular watermelon on the outside, but it is yellow inside. Many buyers describe it as mild and sweet. If you have only had red watermelon, a watermelon that is yellow inside is an easy way to try something different.

In Tagalog it is called pakwan na dilaw, and some sellers write pakwan yellow. If you are looking for yellow watermelon in the Philippines, Wilfredo Crisostomo lists yellow watermelon from Santa Rosa, Laguna.


Seedless Watermelon

A seedless watermelon has only small, soft white seed coats instead of hard black seeds. It is grown from special hybrid seed.

Two sellers in this guide list seedless watermelon in the Philippines: Jun Gumba in Quezon City and Jobell Sumaliling in Davao City.


Where Watermelons Are Grown in the Philippines

Most watermelon in the Philippines is harvested in the hot, dry months, roughly March to June, when supply is highest. Bulacan, Pampanga and Pangasinan grow much of the watermelon sold in Metro Manila. On a typical watermelon farm in the Philippines, farmers often plant it in lowland fields after the rice harvest.

Bani, a town in Pangasinan, promotes itself as the watermelon capital of the North and holds a yearly Pakwan Festival, usually in January or February. If you search for the pakwan capital of the Philippines, Bani in Pangasinan is one of the towns that comes up.

The 6 sellers in this guide are in two island groups:

  • Luzon: Santa Rosa (Laguna) and Quezon City

  • Mindanao: Davao City (two sellers) and Zamboanga City (two sellers)

Check the location on each listing and ask the seller about pickup and delivery.


How to Know if a Watermelon Is Sweet

Wondering how to know if a watermelon is sweet before you buy? These simple signs can help:

  • Look for a creamy yellow spot on one side, where it lay on the ground. A white or very pale spot can mean it was picked early.

  • A dull rind is usually riper than a very shiny one.

  • Pick one that feels heavy for its size.

  • Tap it: a deep, hollow sound is a common sign of a ripe watermelon.

  • A dry, brown stem or curly tendril near the stem can mean it ripened on the vine.

These signs help, but they are not certain, so ask the seller when it was harvested.


How to Order Watermelon Online

Ordering from a watermelon supplier is simple, but a few questions will save you trouble:

  • Ask if the price is per piece or per kilo. Some sellers sell per piece, others per kilo or in bulk lots.

  • Check the minimum order and the size of each piece.

  • For watermelon wholesale orders, ask about bulk rates. Wilfredo Crisostomo lists ₱28 per kilo for orders over 100 kg.

  • Watermelons are heavy and can bruise, so ask about pickup, delivery and packing.
