Masbate Slope

The topography of the main island is characterized by rolling hills and discontinuous ranges of highlands and relatively broad bands of lowlands. On its northwestern tip are limestone cliffs that rise almost perpendicularly from the waterline. Several bays indent the coast of the islands; the most important of which are Port Barrera and Masbate Bay.

A fairly continuous rangeof hills rises steeply from a narrow plain on the western prong of Masbate Island. The larger arm of the island is not a continuous range but is broken by two traverse valleys; one between Milagros and Port Palanog and the other one, south of Uson.
