The place is in Bato, about 10kms from Virac...The place is serene and beautiful. Along a river, and mountains/hills on the other side. Very good for photo-ops.

The facade is nice, the interiors is small and looks like other churches. Went there on a Sunday but there was no mass?

Located about 13 kms North-East of the town of Virac, this gem of an old church is definitely a stand-out among the many other old stone churches of the island province. The church opens up to the equally gorgeous Bato River. My visit to this place set me up for some brief moments of prayer and reflection. Indeed, a delightful sight and spiritually-refreshing visit. A must-see for the religious and historically-inclined travel buff!

nice church
Went to mamangal beach, best beach, best sand, best view of mayon, but the accomodation has no mattress, will have to sleep on a bamboo bed. Puraran beach is also good, just farther from the airport. If you want to relax, this is the best place to stay at night. I recommend, go on a day trip early in the morning to mamangal beach, surf at puraran beach in the afternoon, then stay at twin rock resort overnight.
I suggest you ask them for the best van/ jeep rental for trips around catanduanes. Never again will we contact Mr. Salvador Tayam, who took adantage of us. Van has no aircon, break pads burned, even asked for extra charge and meal charge during our trip. We just got his number over the internet.
