TOURISM SPOTLIGHT
If there is one thing Romblon has no shortage of, it is beaches, stretches and stretches of it and each town offering a unique characteristic to visitors. For Alcantara, it is white pebbled beaches that continue on to sandy ocean floors perfect for swimming and diving. There are also springs, coves, mountains to hike and forests to experience nature. Located in Tablas Island, the town can be reached by plane direct or by ship from Manila and Batangas via Odiongan. Picture below is Aglicay Beach Resort.
