There is a growing number of guest houses and beach resorts from Cangmating southward to Dumaguete and the coral reefs of Ajong are attracting more dive boats.

The main port facility is located in the same barangay, where there are trips every hour to Liloan, Santander on the southern tip of Cebu island.

Most commercial development is along the national highway, which runs the length of the town from Dumaguete in the south to San Jose at the north.

Most business and light industry is also located along the highway in Bolocboloc, Maslog, Agan-an and Poblacion including the newly opened 100-bed Negros Polymedic Hospital.

Sibulan also boasts a golf course resort, perched on the foothills in barangay San Antonio, just north of the town center.
