Best of Romblon
I lived in the province or a small island here in the Philippines. Many of you probably do not know this place but over the time our Province has made itself known because of the stunning points of interest to visit.
I am proud to say that I came from Romblon, an island where strategically placed at the center of the Philippines. Isn't it amazing?
Aside from that, Romblon is known for being the "Marble Capital of the Philippines". If you happened to visit here, you will realized that some roads are made out of marble. You'll think that's unbelievable but yes it's true!
If you're an adventurous type of person then Romblon is the perfect place for you. Aside from marbles, our Province has a lot to offer you will also find stunning white sand beaches, towering mountain, historic sites and Romblon's exquisite delicacies. It is 264 kilometers away from Manila.
Romblon is an underrated Philippine destination with the variety of unspoiled natural beauty. It is a perfect getaway destination for tourists and travelers who want to experience something different, something extraordinary and something new.
I will show you some beautiful places that I have been to.
First stop,
Ngakngak Beach
Ngakngak Beach Resort is located at Linao Calatrava, Romblon, 40 km away from Odiongan Romblon Port.
There are four ways to get there;
Riding Jeep - 1 hour and 25 minutes of travel
Riding Van - 1 hour and 10 minutes of travel
Riding Motorcycle- 1 hour and 40 minutes of travel
Riding a Bike - 3 hours of travel
But if you're a bold or audacious type of person you can walk from port of Odiongan to Ngakngak Beach Resort for 9 hours. (Just kidding)
Ngakngak Beach Resort was a wonderful place to relax and to be disconnected from city noises since there's no internet connection here. The sceneries was extra beautiful specially on a bright sunny day. You can see clearly the blue and green color of the ocean. This place is also perfect for snorkeling, kayaking, and there's also a jungle which you can explore.
So here's a picture of me sitting on the sand while enjoying the breathtaking view of nature.
It was fun and worthwhile bonding experience together with my family and other relatives. My aunties says that they will definitely come back here and bring all their friends to witness the hidden beauty of this white sand beach.
Binucot Beach
Binucot Beach is also known as the mini Boracay of Romblon. This magnificent beach is located at Bunsuran Ferrol, Romblon, 10 kilometers away from Odiongan Port. It is beautiful cove with Hill at either end. Binucot Beach Resort was one of the best beach experience I ever had. It is a perfect place for family gatherings, friends outing or any special occasion. You can also go there alone if you want to have quality time with yourself, to reminisce, to meditate and to just escape city noises.
After checking in, we decided to walk and enjoy the Boracay like sand. I'm kinda shy to take photos because there's some tourist wanting to take pictures from this spot. As you can see, there's a lot of Palm Trees which gives tropical vibes. The sand here is soft to touch and perfect for a barefoot stroll that will help ease your mind and body.
My cousins from Manila came here just to see how beautiful the place is. They said that the beauty of Binucot Beach can really be compared to Boracay. Their friends also thought they were in Boracay because they saw the photos posted online.
After enjoying the the beautiful scenery here we didn't want to miss the opportunity to go to another tourist attractions nearby.
Bel-At Point
Bel-At Point is the same way as Binucot Beach Resort, we just walk for about 15 minutes to get here. It is made from high quality of wood with a safari cabin style shed at the end where you can overlook the vast ocean, beautiful rock formations and mountains.
This spot is perfect for "opacarophiles" or a person who love sunset. You can see the sunset up close and you can get a picture perfect view of enchanting nature.
We can't just go home without picture taking, so here we are posing with our smiles on.
Those places are just three out of hundred beautiful places to go to. If you're planning your vacation please include Romblon in your bucket list.
I still have a lot to go to and I think that would be all for now.
