The Island
The small island of Pamilacan is nestled
in the heart of the Bohol Sea, the Visayas Archipelagos
in the Philippines. Its name is derived from the word pilak, which
is a large hooked implement made and used by the islanders to
capture manta rays, whale sharks and bryde's whale. The Bohol
Sea is said to be a breeding ground of these mysterious
but beautiful creatures. The island in previous times, served
as a watch station against the intrusion of pirates and enemies
of the Spanish colony as evidenced by the 200-year-old Spanish
fort on the northeast side of the island.
