Philippines: Catanduanes Provincial Profile
Catanduanes, an island paradise of howling winds and strange calm, lies east of the Bicol mainland. It is bounded on the west by the Maqueda
Channel, by the Pacific Ocean on the north and east, and by Lagonoy Gulf and Cabugao Bay on the south. The island province has a total land
area of 1,492.16 square kilometers. With Virac as its capital, Catanduanes is subdivided into 11 municipalities, 315 barangays and one congressio-
nal district. Due to its exposed location, Catanduanes is directly open to typhoons which had
frequently visited it in the past immobilizing its economy and its people.(Source: http://nap.p- 0 11 315
