Carabao Island, Romblon
Filed under The Traveler
Carabao Island is just one of Romblon’s tourist destinations that is waiting to bloom. I was able to go there with Sha, Vieve and Evan via a boat from Sta. Fe, Tablas Island, Romblon. The time to go there will take you about almost an hour wherein we spent half the time screaming as if we’re on the Jungle Log Jam (one of the rides in Enchanted Kingdom). Upon arriving there, I just can’t help but admire its beauty. Its shore is covered with white and fine sand, similar to that of Boracay. The water is very clear. It’s wavy there though which is caused by the northeast wind.
We were able to go around the island and I saw a Tourist Information Center there and as well as some accommodations. The part of Carabao Island that we were able to go to is not the one you can see from Puka Beach, Boracay Island. According to some locals, an airport is said to be developed there. I did a little research in Google and confirmed that an International Airport is going to be developed there.
I do hope that the cleanliness in Carabao Island will be maintained.

Bloggers have been going to Palawan, Subic, and other beaches. I haven’t gone on an out-of-town vacation since Boracay in January. Sniff.

I hope everyone can explore some beautiful places in Romblon. There are nice places for scuba diving. Dudduban waterfalls is a nice place too. You can reach there thru San Agustin. Its just 20 minutes from town by tricycle. You can go there by way of Batangas.
