Earthquakes in the Philippines — June 2026

122 earthquakes were recorded in the Philippines during June 2026, an average of 4.1 per day.

122 reached magnitude 4 or above and 55 reached magnitude 5 or above. The average focal depth was 50 km.

The month's largest event in the Philippines was a magnitude 7.8 earthquake near Burias, Philippines on 07 June 2026 at 23:37 UTC. A magnitude 7.8 earthquake radiates roughly 7.6 million tons of TNT equivalent in seismic energy.

That is well above the the Philippines monthly average of 35 events over the period we cover — an unusually active month, and up from the 24 recorded the previous month.

81% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 19% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). The mix is dominated by shallow crustal events, with a minority of intermediate-depth activity.

By band, the catalogue holds 67 in the magnitude 4 range, 48 in the magnitude 5 range, 6 in the magnitude 6 range, 1 in the magnitude 7 range.

Activity peaked on 08 June, when 40 events were recorded.

The month's largest events were M7.8 near Burias, Philippines on 07 June at 35 km; M6.7 near Sarangani, Philippines on 26 June at 66 km; M6.5 near Balangonan, Philippines on 08 June at 66 km.

That is 253% above the 35 events the Philippines averages per month across the 21 months on record.

This month also holds the strongest earthquake recorded in the Philippines in our entire catalogue.
