11 Places to Visit in Romblon + Things To Do

Romblon, an archipelagic province in the Mimaropa region of the Philippines, is not very popular among tourists. But it deserves some spotlight for all the glorious gems it has.

Romblon has a wide array of unspoiled beauty, divided among three major islands: the provincial capital of the same name, Romblon, Tablas, and Sibuyan. They feature various adventures ranging from the laidback to the most thrilling. On top of the list is Carabao Island, a stunning beach that could compete with that of Boracay, minus all the noise and the crowd. For seasoned divers who want edge-of-your-seat excitement underwater, there’s Blue Hole, a vertical tunnel at the northeast tip of Tablas Island. Sibuyan Island has Mt. Guiting Guiting to boast about. It’s the highest mountain in the province and one of the toughest hikes in the country.
