Before going back to Manila we visited our relatives also at Maniwaya Island! This is a peaceful place to relax and unwind! We stayed at thier Resort which is Pielago Beach Resort. The water was clear and it blended well with the white sand. The moment I first set foot on the island, I remember telling myself that we’re going to have a blast in Marinduque. This is our first time to go there!
