The Spaniards named this small island in the Visayas, Siquijor or Isla del Fuego. Stories told that the name was given due to the intensity of fireflies that lie some 22 km east of Southern Negros. It was said that Siquijor rose from the sea during one of the tremendous thunderstorms as evidenced by fossils and shells which can still be found in Mount Bandila-an, the highest point of Siquijor. The small island boasts of a white sand beach coastline and a mountainous interior.
