The Romblon Triangle

The Romblon Triangle

 

Unexplainable events give rise to countless theories and tales. The Romblon Triangle urban legend is a result of a string of accidents that took place in the waters of Romblon. The triangle is said to cover the area from the Tablas strait up to the Sibuyan passage.

 

Like the famous Bermuda Triangle, the Romblon Triangle is believed to be a mysterious place that causes accidents or disappearances. However, unlike the inexplicable tales of the Bermuda Triangle, the accidents that took place in the Romblon Triangle seem to be more natural.

 

“Hindi kataka-takang sa Romblon kasi ito ay open seas kung kaya’t maraming sakuna ang nangyayari rito tulad ng paglubog ng barko,” said Castro. “Pero wala namang ebidensiya rito ng mga nawawala at forever nang hindi nakikita.”

 

“While those accidents are real, it’s probably because the seas there are rougher. Stronger waves, more unpredictable weather,” explained Tan. “The name ‘Romblon Triangle’ is just our way of trying to relate it to something more well-known internationally.”
