Cadastrally located from north to south between 12° 00´N and 11° 19´S and from west to east between 121° 50´W and 122° 35 35´E. Aklan is bordered by the Sulu Sea on the northwest, the Sibuyan Sea on the northeast and the east, by the province of Antique on the west, and by the province of Capiz on the south.

The easternmost part of Aklan is the eastern shoreline of Mambuquiao Bay in the municipality of Batan, the westernmost location is Pucio Point (Buruanga)

Aklan has an estimated land area of 181,789 hectares. This is the official estimate of the National Census and Statistic Office and the Bureau of Forest Development. However, the figure remains only an estimate because the provincial and municipal boundaries are in dispute, and because the province has not been entirely cadastrally surveyed.

Aklan is composed of 17 municipalities, namely, (geographically listed from West to East) Buruanga, Malay, Nabas, Ibajay, Tangalan, Makato, Numancia, Lezo, Malinao, Madalag, Kalibo, Banga, Balete, Libacao, New Washington, Altavas and Batan. The largest in land area being Libacao and the smallest, Lezo. Each municipality maintains a municipal government whose seat is the barrio designated Poblacion, and which carries the same name as the entire municipality. Within the province are 327 barrios, the largest number being located in Ibajay, the smallest number being located in Balete.

Northern Philippine Cuisine

For festive occasions, people band together and prepare more sophisticated dishes. Tables are often laden with expensive and labor-intensive treats requiring hours of preparation. In Filipino celebrations, lechón (also spelled litson) serves as the centerpiece of the dinner table. It is usually a whole roasted pig, but suckling pigs (lechonillo, or lechon de leche) or cattle calves (lechong baka) can also be prepared in place of the popular adult pig.
