Location and geography
Balbagon is a narrow, low-lying wooded island northeast of the Panay Island coast in the Visayan Sea. It is 6 kilometres (3.7 mi) west of Gigantes Sur and directly west of Nabunot Island.[2] Balbagon is part of barangay Lantangan, on Gigantes Sur. The Coral Cay Beach Resort is on Balbagon and is accessible from Gigantes Sur.[3]
Two minor islands lie east and south of Balbagon. Ojastras Islet is a small cay 0.5 miles (0.80 km) south of Balbagon, while Turnina Islet is 0.75 miles (1.21 km) to the east.[4] Shoal spits connect both islets to Balbagon.[5]
