Behind the main island of Mararison is another island that looks no more than an oversized rock. The locals call it Nablag after the Karay-a word bulag. No, it has nothing to do with being blind as the Tagalog word would connote. Bulag in their language means “to separate,” and that’s exactly what Nablag does: it separates from the main island of Mararison during the high tides, and connects with it once again when the tides are low.

Nablag (nabulag in Kinaray-a) means separated. It’s an islet separated to the Mararison Island. It’s actually about 300 meters from Mararison.

You can walk into the islet if it’s a low tide. Read More: https://www.asaniquen.com/must-visit-antique-tourist-spots-our-3-days-diy-itinerary/

Nablag Islet is easily reached by foot from Luyo Beach of Malalison Island during low tide. There’s a rock formation on one side of the islet that is worth checking. If you want a very good view of the western side of Malalison Island facing to the east, then Nablag Islet offers a non-typical Philippine landscape that travelers should not miss.
