Romblon is known as the "marble capital" of the Philippines, but it is not only the marble that attracts people and tourists to visit the place. Behind the word marble capital, lies the beauty that makes your vacation worth.

From San Agustin Port you must to ride on a motorboat or known to local as "pump-boat" that cost 100 pesos and 10 peso terminal fee.
There are only two schedule of motorboat trip to Romblon, Romblon, first trip is 8AM and 1PM except only when there is a special trip.

                      This pictures were taken from different stores that we have been to.

Different figures and designs made from marble were displayed in stalls.

One of my favorite sculpture: I named it as 
              "Tres Marias Dolfinas"









 You can buy a marble made keychain to a huge figures of dolphins, Buddhas, tigers, lion, pigs, dragons like green phoenix  and coffee table with marble stool.

To many to select but I don't have enough money.. hehehhehe

Romblon is not only into marble making figurines they are also into native products making. Like this native bags made from buri. This can be a good pasalubong.

That's us in the mirror wearing different designs of native buri hats that suits for summer.
