Leaving IloIlo, next Iland: Guimaras!
Guimaras province is basically agricultural with palay, coconut, mango, vegetables, livestock, poultry and fishing as major products. Its major industries are tourism, fruit processing, coconut processing, fish farming, handicrafts making, mining, quarrying and lime production.
Guimaras is well-known for its agricultural crops, particularly mangoes, where some 50,000 of these trees are planted. The Guimaras Island is famous for producing the sweetest mangoes in the world. Guimaras mangos are reportedly served at the White House and Buckingham Palace!

Our resort in Sibunag, is located on a small Island called on Inampulugan, 45minutes by boat from the main island. It is a privately-owned crocodile-shaped island blessed with rolling mountains, virgin forests, bamboo thickets, coconut groves, hidden caves, and pristine waters.
The resort serves as an income for the village on the island. The same people who maintain and serve the resort. A fantastic concept! Even though at first we felt a bit lonely, after meeting the children and people of the village, we fell in love with the island and the resort.
