Visit Mimaropa

Calapan

Mimaropa, also known as the Southwestern Tagalog Region, is an administrative region located in the southwestern part of Luzon in the Philippines. It consists of four provinces: Mindoro (including its islands), Marinduque, Romblon, and Palawan. The region has a rich history with evidence of occupation by Austronesian peoples that dates back to 2200 BC.

The area's natural beauty is its main draw for visitors; some excellent beaches to consider are Sabang Beach in Palawan for snorkeling or diving and San Agustin Beach on Mindoro Island for swimming and sunbathing. For those looking to explore the land's unique culture, a visit to Boac Cathedral on Marinduque Island will give guests an insight into Spanish colonial architecture from centuries past.

A particularly interesting historical fact about Mimaropa is that it was home to communities known as Moro people who resisted Spanish colonization during their stay at the end of 16th century until early 20th century when they were finally subjugated by American forces during their occupation from 1898-1946..
