San Miguel Bay is a large bay in the Bicol Peninsula of Luzon island in the Philippines. It encompasses the provinces of Camarines Norte and Camarines Sur.
The province of Camarines Norte is to the west and Camarines Sur is to the south and east of the bay. On the coastline are numerous sandy beaches and mangrove forests. Ninety-five percent of the seabed in the bay is covered by sandy and silt soils. About five percent are covered by coral reefs, which are mostly located in the northwest and northeast of the bay and along seagrass and algae beds line the shoreline of the islands at the exit to the Philippine Sea.
