==Etymology== [[File:Ubay Bohol 2.JPG|thumb|left|Poblacion area]] One etymology derivation is that the town's name is a contraction of the term ''ubay-ubay'', meaning "alongside".<ref name=first />

According to Kaufmann's Visayan-English dictionary,{{sfn|Kaufmann|1934}} the Visayan word ''"ubay"'' means:{{ordered list|list_style_type=lower-alpha| to accompany other in bed or along the side, be they persons or animals;| the flow of rivers and streams. from one place to another.}}

The flow of seawater between the mainland and the island of Lapinig Grande (now Pres. C.P. Garcia town) could justify the second definition of Ubay. It is a situation that is permanent and the constant reference to the flow of water can make the term ubay be attached as the name of the place.<ref name=history>{{cite web| url=http://www.boholchronicle.com/2011/mar/27/opinion1.htm| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110405180104/http://www.boholchronicle.com/2011/mar/27/opinion1.htm| archive-date=April 5, 2011 |title=Toponyms of Bohol and its Towns Part 12. Last of Series|publisher=Bohol Chronicle|author=Jes B. Tirol|date=March 27, 2011|access-date=March 12, 2020}}</ref>

An alternative derivation is that the term 'ubay-ubay' or 'alongside' became the byword of seafarers who used to travel close to the shorelines of Ubay to avoid the strong current of the Canigao Channel.<ref name=boholgov>{{cite web |url=http://www.bohol.gov.ph/municipalities/ubay.html |title=Municipality of Ubay |publisher=Province of Bohol |access-date=10 September 2012 |archive-date=22 December 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151222103040/http://www.bohol.gov.ph/municipalities/ubay.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> There was a single path to follow reach the island trading centres. This trail was located alongside (ubay) the sandy beach. Later on the term Ubay became the original name of the community.

==History== ===Spanish Period=== Historically, Ubay was part of Talibon, when the latter was established as a town in civil aspect in 1722.<ref name=pueblo>{{cite book|title=Historia, Geografica, Geologica, y Estadistica de Filipinas Tomo I|author=Agustin de la Cavada y Mendez de Vigo|place=Manila|date=1876|publisher=Consejo de la Hispanidad, Biblioteca|isbn= 9781332712809|volume=1|chapter=9|page=259}}</ref> During Spanish period, a town has two aspects - religious, headed by the parish priest and civil aspect, headed by a gobernadorcillo. The religious aspect was then considered superior to the civil aspect, as the church held significant influence over daily life and governance during that time.<ref>{{cite news|title=Toponyms of Bohol and its Towns, Part 1|author=Jes B. Tirol|date=January 9, 2011|work=Bohol Chronicle|url=http://www.boholchronicle.com/2011/jan/9/opinion1.htm|access-date=June 1, 2013}}</ref>

In 1744, the Dagohoy Revolution started, controlling the entire northeastern part of the province, stretching from Duero to Inabanga that lasted up until 1829. As the revolution progresses, Jesuit were replaced by Augustinian Recollects in Bohol in 1768 led by Fr. Pedro de Santa Barbara, who travelled through mountains with proposals of peace and resettlement for Dagohoy and its followers. Through his untiring intrepidness, later on, pacified patriots together with their cluster chieftains chose to resettle in southern coastal towns. Later in 1794, Fr. Manuel de la Consolacion, then parish priest of Inabanga, successfully brought hundreds of followers and resettled them in towns of Talibon and Inabanga, as well in the barangays (villages) of San Pedro (Talibon), Pangpang (Buenavista), and Ubay.<ref>{{cite journal|title=Augustinian Recollects in the Philippines: Pastoral Work in the 18th Century|url=https://agustinosrecoletos.org/library/126-colaboradores/127-emmanuel-luis-a-romanillos/1622-the-recollects-in-the-philippines-iii-pastoral-work-in-the-18th-century.pdf|author=Angel Martinez Cuesta, OAR|date=2019|access-date=June 1, 2023|publisher=Order of Augustinian Recollects|pages=9–12|website=agustinosrecoletos.org|archive-date=July 15, 2023|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230715234911/https://agustinosrecoletos.org/library/126-colaboradores/127-emmanuel-luis-a-romanillos/1622-the-recollects-in-the-philippines-iii-pastoral-work-in-the-18th-century.pdf|url-status=dead}}</ref> Therefore, much of early residents of Ubay were followers of Dagohoy.

In 1821,<ref name=pueblo /> Ubay became an independent town from Talibon in civil aspect, but due to the Dagohoy Revolution, the newly established town of Ubay did not operate as an independent town because most of the inhabitants resisted the Spanish Government. Up until 1846, Ubay was not listed among the towns in the island of Bohol.<ref>Les Philippines; Histoire, Géographie, Moeurs, Agriculture, Industrie et Commerce des colonies espagnoles dans L'océanie Volume 1 By Jean Mallat · 1846 https://www.google.com.ph/books/edition/Les_Philippines_histoire_g%C3%A9ographie_moe/RelAAQAAMAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&pg=PA309&printsec=frontcover</ref> Then, according to a Tax Census dated September 1, 1847,<ref name="ReferenceA">Tax Census Don Manuel dela Canal, Alcalde Mayor of Cebu National Archives of the Philippines</ref> Ubay was officially listed, which served as the basis for its reorganization and indication of a functioning town, marking September 1, 1847<ref name="ReferenceA"/> as the foundation date of Ubay. The first gobernadorcillo of Ubay was believed to be Toribio Reyes, whose name and the year 1872 are inscribed on one of the old church bells of Ubay Parish (Parroquia de Ubay), and who was the only son of Berudja, the legendary matriarch of Ubay.

The religious aspect of Ubay was still administered by the parish of Inabanga, until Talibon was able to establish a separate parish in 1831,<ref name="PBro. D. Felipe Redondo y Sendino, Fiscal Esclesiastico de Dicha Diocesis 1886 182–183">{{cite book|title=Breve Reseña de lo que fue y de lo que es la Diócesis de Cebu en las Islas Filpinas|pages=182–183|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1ytBAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA182|date=1886|place=Manila|publisher=Estabelcimiento Tipografico del Colegio de Sto. Tomas|author=PBro. D. Felipe Redondo y Sendino, Fiscal Esclesiastico de Dicha Diocesis}}</ref> making Ubay a visita with its chapel made of wood. The official religious aspect of the town was established much later than the civil aspect.

On June 26, 1874, a written petition<ref name="ReferenceB">National Archives of the Philippines</ref> was made by gobernadorcillo Saturnino Boyles along with the Community Heads, and the Household Heads of Ubay for an independent parish, separate from Talibon. To support their cause, they voluntarily constructed a decent rectory.

Then, on October 22, 1877,<ref name="PBro. D. Felipe Redondo y Sendino, Fiscal Esclesiastico de Dicha Diocesis 1886 182–183"/><ref name="ReferenceB"/> an independent parish in Ubay (Spanish Era: Parroquia de Ubay, Present: Santo Niño de Ubay Parish) was established by a diocesan decree under the patronage of the Holy Child. This was done through Royal Order No. 695 of the Ministry of Overseas dated October 5, 1876, issued by the King of Spain Alfonso XII,<ref name=history /> creating an independent parish in Ubay, and a confirming decree dated November 22, 1876 from the Spanish Governor General José Malcampo, 3rd Marquess of San Rafael. Cabulao (presently San Roque, Mabini) was included as its visita.<ref name="PBro. D. Felipe Redondo y Sendino, Fiscal Esclesiastico de Dicha Diocesis 1886 182–183"/>

The first parish priest of Parrioquia de Ubay (presently Santo Niño de Ubay) was P. Fr. Blas Adan del Pilar, from the Order of Augustinian Recollects, who served from October 1877 until February 1884, before he was transferred to Consolacion, Cebu.<ref>{{cite book|title=Catálogo de los Religiosos Agustinos Recoletos de la Provincia de San Nicolás de Tolentino de Filipinas desde el año 1906, en que llegó la primera misión à Manila hasta nuestros días|author=Francisco Sádaba del Carmen|date=1906|page=547|url=|place=Madrid|publisher=Imprenta del Asilo de Huerfanos del Sagrado Corazon de Jesus}}</ref> He succeeded by P.

Ubay holds its town fiesta every January, as it is the official feast month of Santo Niño,<ref>{{URL|1=http://www.bohol.ph/day.php?year={{#time:Y}}&month=01&day=29| 2=Calendar for January {{#time:Y}}}}</ref> a tradition that continues to this day. Ubayanons far away often come home during the fiesta to celebrate, reunite with loved ones, and honor their cultural heritage. The town comes alive with parades, music, and religious services, as the community gathers to relive traditions and strengthen their ties to home.

===Climate=== {{climate chart | Ubay<br />{{font|size=88%|color=SlateGray|css=font-weight: normal;|text=Average annual temperature in Ubay is 27·2°C<br />Humidity '''75–85%'''}} ---- | 22.2 | 30.0 | 191 | 22.2 | 30.1 | 111 | 22.5 | 31.0 | 94 | 23.4 | 31.7 | 58 | 23.8 | 32.5 | 106 | 23.5 | 32.0 | 154 | 23.7 | 31.7 | 210 | 23.7 | 31.8 | 159 | 23.5 | 31.6 | 186 | 23.4 | 31.4 | 204 | 23.1 | 31.1 | 222 | 22.6 | 30.3 | 192 | float = left | source = {{URL|http://en.climate-data.org/location/20874/| Climate: Ubay}}}}

The climate is typically equatorial – temperature range over the year is less than three degrees Celsius ({{convert|3|C-change|disp=output number only|spell=in}} deg F), and annual rainfall exceeds {{convert|1500|mm|in|0}}. The dry season starts in February and lasts through April sometimes extending to mid{{nbhyph}}May. The climate in Ubay falls within Coronas climate type IV, characterized by not very pronounced maximum rainfall with a short dry season from one to three months and a wet season of nine to ten months.{{sfn|Coronas|1920}}

==Infrastructure==

===Transport===

The most common form of local transportation is the tricycle for nearer barangays. For far barangays, the motorcycle is the most common. All barangays are connected by roads and the only places without roads are the steep slopes of the central mountains.

The improvement of the Bohol circumferential road and the port facilities helped Ubay to become the trading and transportation hub of northeastern Bohol, connecting it to the neighboring island of Leyte and the rest of Bohol province. Passenger and cargo traffic to these destinations has noticeably increased over the years indicating an increasing volume of trade between these points.

Land transportation is provided by various short and long-distance buses, jeeps and vans, connecting Ubay to the rest of the towns in the province. Tagbilaran can be reached from Ubay in two to three hours by bus or van. There are also daily combined road/ferry services to Metro Manila (Pasay / Cubao, Quezon City).

'''Ubay seaport''' is considered the province's principal gateway to Leyte, and Samar.<ref name=port>{{cite web|url=http://www.bohol-philippines.com/ubay-seaport.html|title=Ubay Seaport|publisher=Bohol-Philippines.com|date=1 February 2014|access-date=8 March 2014}}</ref> Its improved port area is linked to the major port destinations of neighboring provinces such as Bato and Hilongos in Leyte, Maasin City in Southern Leyte, and Cebu City, the regional capital.{{sfn|Bohol Standard|2010}} Four vessels travels to and from Cebu City daily,<ref name=port /> and routes to and from Bato, Hilongos and Maasin City are also served daily. The journey time for each destination is 4–5 hours.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.leyte-divers.com/en/weg2.htm|title=The Southern Leyte Connection|date=1 February 2012|access-date=8 March 2015|publisher=Leyte-Divers.com}}</ref>

'''Tapal Wharf''' is another port terminal located in northeastern barangay of Tapal that serves the route between President Carlos P. Garcia and Ubay.<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.sunstar.com.ph/article/1911494/cebu/local-news/7-seaport-projects-to-be-inaugurated-in-bohol|title=7 seaport projects to be inaugurated in Bohol|date=October 28, 2021|access-date=October 28, 2021|work=SunStar Cebu}}</ref>

[[File:Ubay Airport.JPG|thumb|right|Ubay Airport]] '''Camambugan Airport'''

Ubay is home to one of only three airports in Bohol (the other Bohol–Panglao International Airport and Tagbilaran Old Airport), but Ubay Airport is currently ongoing expansion and development which is delayed by the recent pandemic. The runway currently is only about {{convert|1000| m| ft|-1}} long. It is proposed to be a service airport for airlines and budget airport that will connect to other provinces and tourists from other tourism destinations.

===Health===

For health services, the town has three public Rural Health Units (RHU) staffed by doctors, nurses, midwives, dentists, medical technologists and sanitary inspectors. A small government hospital was established to provide outpatient services to local residents. A private 15-bed hospital in Fatima also provides services for emergencies. A pediatrics and OB-gyne clinic complements the health services available in town. A Public Rural Health Unit (RHU) 4 and RHU 5 is being eyed to be constructed within three years period in 2023–2025.

'''Don Emilio Del Valle Memorial Hospital''' in barangay Bood is a National Government Hospital was established in 2003 from a donated lot with a current bed capacity of 300 as of 2019.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.officialgazette.gov.ph/2019/04/17/republic-act-no-11323/|title=Republic Act No. 11323|date=April 17, 2019|access-date=April 17, 2019|publisher=Official Gazette (Philippines)}}</ref> It became the first agency in the province to be granted with ''ISO 9001:2008 QMS Certification'' by TUV SUD. In July 2015, it was granted a certificate of full ISO compliance by TUV SUD. In 2017, it acquired its ISO 9001:2015 Certification by TÜV Rheinland.<ref>{{cite web|title=Don Emilio Del Valle Memorial Hospital|url=https://devmh.doh.gov.ph/historical-profile/|date=March 6, 2019|access-date=February 28, 2022|archive-date=February 28, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220228091657/https://devmh.doh.gov.ph/historical-profile/|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Barangay Health Workers (BHW) from each barangay provide direct health care assistance to barangay residents.

===Public order and safety=== The local police force is 37 police officers. Police–population ratio is 1:{{formatnum:{{#expr:{{formatnum:81,799|R}} / 37 round 0}}}}, {{#ifexpr:{{#expr:{{formatnum:81,799|R}} / 37 round 0}}>1000|less|more}} favourable than the standard ratio of 1:1,000. The police are augmented by 492 Barangay Tanod volunteers. It is reported that crime rate in Ubay is relatively low. The local Fire Department is staffed by eight fire fighters with two fire trucks. Incidence of fires is reportedly low in the municipality.

===Utilities===

Bohol was linked to the major source of geothermal power in Leyte through the underwater connection between Maasin City, Southern Leyte and Ubay. Presently, only three of the 44 barangays have no electricity, yet only 34.97 percent of the total households in the municipality have electricity compared to the province, which was 58.3 percent energized in 2000.

The town proper and seven other barangays were served by the Ubay Water Service Cooperative. The cooperative planned to expand their service to eight other barangays in the near future. Due to consumer demand and the limited size of the supply, water service became difficult during dry months. Bohol province reported that 23.71 percent of its households had their own faucets from a community system while Ubay reported only 8.97 percent.

For the province, 21.68 percent of households had access to shared faucets while Ubay only had 8.86 percent. In Ubay, slightly more than half (51.83%) of the households had access to dug wells.
