Masinloc, officially the Municipality of Masinloc, is a 1st class municipality in the province of Zambales, Philippines. According to the 2020 census, it has a population of 54,529 people.

Scarborough Shoal (under the names Pulo ng Panatag and Bajo de Masinloc) is claimed by the Philippine government as within the town's territorial jurisdiction. Due to the continued dispute over the shoal, this has negatively impacted fishermen of the community, reducing catch sizes and affecting other businesses.
