The Best of Marinduque at Costa Celina

Torrijos is a rustic town in Marinduque overflowing with spectacular white sand beaches guaranteed to amaze even the most travelled adventurer, and probably the best of these is Costa Celina. The closeness to nature one feels while being here has made it a prime destination for those who are looking for that one place where they can just relax and just revel in peace this haven has to offer.  

Located in Sitio Talisay, Brgy. Bonliw, flanked by cliffs on both sides, Costa Celina is among the favorite dive spots in Marinduque. It is approximately 40 meters from the shore, with an undersea wall rich in diverse marine ecosystems teeming with flora and fauna.
