This is a paradise with fine white sand beaches, amazing landscapes, crystal clear water, a vast diversity of underwater creatures, and much more. Let's accept the reality that when Boracay Island was closed, the other comparable beaches were recognized - Maniwaya Island in Marinduque is one of those. The province is considered the heart of the Philippine archipelago and the neighbor of my hometown - Romblon. Gorgeous images of this island spread on social media, which captured my interest.
