Hotels in Marinduque (Day 1)


There are two things known in Marinduque, namely: the Moriones Festival and the Boac Cathedral

Last December 20, 2014, I went to Marinduque to spend my vacation prior to Christmas. Unfortunately, Moriones Festival is celebrated during Holy Week and that leaves me with only visiting  the Boac Cathedral. But this is not the topic in this blog. I am here to help you find the appropriate accommodation for your stay in Boac, Marinduque.

There are seven municipalities in Marinduque. But the best place to stay is in its capital, Boac. And here follows some of the accommodations in Boac, Marinduque.
