Buenavista

Buenavista is a municipality on the island of Marinduque. This town is best known for its beautiful view of Mount Malindig and the Sibuyan Sea, hence its name which means good view in Spanish.

One of the town's most popular attractions is Elephant Island, which features the former Bellaroca Island Resort. Along with the island, the municipality is also famous for Mount Malinding, which is considered the highest peak in the province. 

This dormant stratovolcano is a favorite mountaineering destination which was three peaks - north, central and south. Reaching the north one has a mossy forest-like trail which will lead you to the highest peak while the central peak will lead you to the mouth of the volcano and the south has the rockies peak.
