    Right smack between the Bicol peninsula and the Visayan islands, Masbate province, and its unique spots wait to be discovered as a tourism frontier.

    Island Hopping In Burias Castillo Island

    I guess it is safe for me to say that we indeed saved the best for last! After spending enough time in Verga Island, our bangkero finally took us to another unspoiled paradise. They told us that the place was rarely visited by the tourists which made us even more excited. They called it as Castillo island and after we arrived, we were welcomed by its pristine water with clear sandy-bottom shore. It was truly a paradise and possibly the best destination we had in our entire Burias escapade.
