and is part of the Cagayan Valley region in Luzon. Its capital is Basco and is separated from the Babuyan Islands of Cagayan Province by the Balintang Channel

and from Taiwan by the Bashi Channel.

wildlife includes the tatus (coconut crab) and migratory birds from China.

Structures with Spanish influence remain here such as the San Jose and San Carlos Borromeo Churches. Adventure seekers find Batanes great for surfing,

Ethnic Tribes / Group

Yogads - speak one of the five recognized dialects of the Ga’dang and are part of the Christianized Kalingas in western Isabela. They are pre-colonial inhabitants of Ecahgue, whose mother tongue is the Yogad language. Yogads are predominantly of the Indonesian type with a slight mixture of Negrito and Chinese blood. They have straight black hair, dark brown eyes, and reddish brown to darkbrown complexion. Although their civilization was slightly influenced by the Spaniards, they hold on strongly to their old customs and beliefs. Recent studies show that despite the pervasiveness of Ilocano in Echague, the Yogads have remained steadfast in the use of their mother tongue.
