Aurora is a coastal province of Central Luzon region in the Philippines. Little is known about the province due to its remoteness, but its capital is known for its surfing scene, and the province has one of the largest expanses of rainforest spared from development, and also has hidden beaches and mountains.
By car
Being separated from the central plains by the Sierra Madre, driving to Aurora involves mountain roads with many sharp curves.
By plane
There are two airports, Dr. Juan C. Angara Airport (BQA) and Casiguran Airport (CGG), but only Baler airport has flights, on Air Juan, which operates amphibious aircraft from Manila.
The Baler-Casiguran Road is the main transport artery of the province. It is a two-lane road that is vulnerable to road closures caused by storm surges, landslides and erosion during the typhoon season.
