Marinduque : My journey to the center of the Philippines


Marinduque is an island province of  the Philippines - known as the center of the Philippines. It is one of my favorite travel of the year so far.  An unexpected journey to the land of MORIONES. Marinduque Province is composed of six (6) towns namely Mogpog, Sta. Cruz, Torrijos, Buenavista, Gasan, and Boac (the capital town). Some of the popular tourist spots in the province are Poctoy White Beach, Maniwaya Island, Bellaroca Resort, Bathala Cave, The Battle of Pulang Lupa site, Mt. Malindig, Tres Reyes Islands.


How to Get to Marinduque

Board a bus to Lucena (Dalahican). The terminals can either be found in Cubao or Buendia. Bus companies servicing the route are Jacliner, JAM, DLTB or Lucena Lines.

Travel time from Cubao to Dalahican is 3-4 hours.

Arriving in Dalahican port, you have to ride a boat going to Marinduque. There are 3 different RORO ferry bound for Marinduque. I opted for Dalahican - Balanacan Port in Mogpog. 

Arriving at Balanacan, you have to board a jeepney going to the capital (Boac) or any other municipal destination of the province ( i opted to go to Gasan - it is because Gasan is the only town in Marinduque where you can catch a small boat going to Mindoro)
