Our
Location
San
Jose Town. Located on Carabao Island, as the island-municipality of
San Jose is otherwise called, is found at the southernmost tip of Romblon,
strategically located between the famous island-resort of Boracay and
Tablas Island.
Measuring
only 28.9 square kilometers, this island does not look any different
from the other islands of Romblon. From afar it looks like one flat
islet with no heights to boast of. True enough, the highest peak is
only 218 meters, but its beauty more than compensates for its size.

The
beauty of San Jose is in its coastlines - it has the most beautiful
beaches of the whole of Romblon. Perfect spot are the beaches in Brgy.
Lunas, Bignay and the whole length of shoreline in the town proper.
Of powdery find white sands, these beaches have clear, warm waters with
gradually sloping ocean floors. The beachfront in the town proper spans
more than a kilometer with a shore width of 15 meters during high tide
becoming as wide as 25 to 30 meters during low tide. In Brgys. Lunas
and Bignay, shorefronts measure five meters widening to about 10 meters
in some areas. Those big boulders so common in the ocean floors on the
islet of Alad, Logbon and Cabrador are also found in San Jose.

The
boat passed by Carabao Island. This is a typical Philippine island with
a costal cliff in front of a white beach. The trip to Santa Fe lasts
about two hours and is quite interesting. The pier at Santa Fe is a
flurry of activity with people helping passengers disembark and move
luggage and belongings. It looked very safe.
We were struck with nostalgia when we saw the method of transfer from
the boat to the pier. First someone swims to the boat with a rope that
is used to pull a smaller boat to the banca. The passengers got into
the smaller boat and transferred to the pier. From here, we transferred
to an already waiting jeepney. The trip costs about P150 and is beautiful.
You travel through the hilly countryside with nice palms and occasional
views of the ocean. This trip is much more interesting than flying from
Borocay to Manila.

How
does Carabao measure up to Boracay? San Jose has the sand quality, its
water is cleaner and if you prefer less people and congestion, more
natural/native surroundings charming Carabao is for you! Carabao does
not have the assortment of restaurants, the lively night life. Welcome
to San Jose.
