LOCATION

Siquijor is the southern most island in the Visayan Island group in the Philippines. It is about 3O kilometers southeast of Negros Island and about 5O kilometers from the closest point of northwestern Mindanao. It is separated from the other islands by the Tañon Strait on the northwest, the Sulu Sea on the southwest and the Mindanao Sea on the South. The topography is hilly but it is also surrounded by stretches of white sandy shorelines.

GETTING THERE

From Manila, scheduled airlines fly to Cebu City and Dumaguete City, where transfers to inter-island ferries can be arranged. There are three seaports on the island. Smaller commercial ships use the port on the towns of Lazi and Larena. These ports are the main trunklines for travelers to and from the neighboring islands of Negros, Bohol, Cebu and northwestern Mindanao. The third port, on the town of Siquijor, is used mainly for motorized outriggers and launches that ferry daily to and from Dumaguete City on the island of Negros.

Air travel by small aircrafts can be arranged at Cang-alwang Airport, about 4 kilometers from downtown Siquijor. There are no regularly scheduled flights to and from Siquijor but a charter can be arranged from the neighboring islands.

Here is one place you shouldnt have to miss when u go to Siquijor. spooky eh! “BLACK MAGIC MARY” Siquijor Island is one spooky place. It’s riddled with abandoned churches and unexplored caves and known throughout the Philippines for its black magic and mangkukulam, or traditional healers. The real hair-raiser is a statue of the Virgin Mary in the village of Maria , a winding 15-km drive through the mountains from the main port of Larena. In her right hand she clutches a skull and in her left an inverted crucifix. Leave before dark. it is really a place to check out well this one makes me really scared but just get me more curios about the island its just one thing for sure now im not getting my booty there ALONE. The statue of virgin mary in the village of Maria.
