Going to Maniwaya Island in Santa Cruz, Marinduque is easy as Option 1, 2, 3 and 4.

ABOUT MARINDUQUE PROVINCE

Marinduque is an island province in the Philippines located in Southwestern Tagalog Region or MIMAROPA, formerly designated as Region IV-B. Its capital is the municipality of Boac. Marinduque lies between Tayabas Bay to the north and Sibuyan Sea to the south.

BEFORE GOING TO MANIWAYA

Here are some of the things you may consider before visiting Maniwaya Island in Marinduque:
  • Maniwaya Island is an ideal place to laze on the beach and swim in the clear waters.
  • Rent a boat and visit Palad Sandbar and Ungab Rock Formation. The sandbar is a good place to go swimming; sink your toes in the soft sand and relax.
  • There are snorkeling spots where you can see some corals and marine life.
  • The island is also one of the best places to see the sunset.
  • Go as early as possible for the boat ride to and from Maniwaya Island as they leave early and just once a day. If you miss it, you will have to charter a boat or leave the next day.
  • Bring a tent if you want to go camping and snorkeling gear.
  • Buy food at the local market to save money. As the cliché goes, leave nothing but footprints.

For hassle-free travel to Marinduque, you can book a tour guide or a camping experience at Maniwaya Island.
