On a clear day when you can see forever Mt. Malindig flaunts its bluish hue and would seem content just watching the affairs of her busy subjects below.
This potentially active volcano, the mother of all mountains on the island, creates a panorama reaching southern Luzon up to the Bicol Peninsula, Mindoro and Verde Island, the Romblon islands and Burias. Its peak is a mossy forest with a diversity of life forms.
One could just watch it from the beach in Poctoy being slowly surrounded by the darkness of the night - until mysterious lights appear just below it or bluish lights appear to soar up from behind it as some witnesses claim.

At times it would seem to blind you with a golden hue, bringing to mind the numerous tales of enormous, hidden treasures being guarded there by spirits of the underworld the locals are only too familiar with.
