| Banca from Pinamalayan to Gasan |
Marinduque is located at the southern part of Luzon and is a part of MIMAROPA Region. It is located south and west of Quezon, east of Mindoro Provinces and north of Romblon. Mariduque is subdivided into six municipalities: Mogpog, Gasan, Buenavista, Torrijos, Santa Cruz and Boac its capital. There are several ways to get to Marinduque: via plane to Gasan, via ferry from Lucena City, Quezon which has daily services to the island alternating between three ports of Marinduque (Balanacan Port in Mogpog, Cawit Port in Boac and Buyabod Port in Sta. Cruz). This will cost you P340. If you are from Mindoro, you can take a Banca from Pinamalayan to the Port of Gasan which will cost you P250. Since I am from Mindoro, me and my friend took the banca from Pinamalayan.
