Almagro, officially the Municipality of Almagro (Cebuano: Lungsod sa Almagro; Waray: Bungto han Almagro; Tagalog: Bayan ng Almagro), is a 5th class municipality in the province of Samar, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 9,273 people.
Almagro is politically subdivided into 23 barangays. Each barangay consists of puroks and some have sitios.
The most famous dance in Almagro is Kuratsa, because of the influence of the Spaniards that controlled the municipality for 330 years. They held their occasions on the newly constructed Covered Court in Barangay Poblacion. Their Fiestas and Charter Days are the days where many people would come to Almagro to witness different activities held on the island. People in Almagro are often seen wearing sando because of the hot weather and the sea breeze on the island.
The only one means of access to Almagro is by motorboat from the port of Calbayog, taking usually up to 2 hours of travel.
