The province of Romblon is a group of several islands located south of mainland Luzon and can be accessed by air or by RORO from Batangas City Port. You'll have spend ample amount of time or visit it several times for you to really experience what the province has to offer. I am definitely coming back to visit Tablas and Sibuyan islands, soon!
