MASBATE CITY — The capital of Masbate province is the Bicol region's gateway to the Visayas and Mindanao. Sitting on the main island of Masbate facing Albay and Sorsogon in southeastern Luzon, it is the province's main commercial center, seaport and aviation hub.
Due to its strategic location, Masbate City has become a melting pot of diverse cultures in Central Philippines. The Masbateño language is closely related to the Capiznon and Hiligaynon of Western Visayas, as well as the Waray of Eastern Visayas. The Bicolano and Cebuano languages are also spoken by some Masbateños.
