Encyclopedic overview

Camarines Norte (Central Bikol: Amihanan na Camarines; Filipino: Hilagang Camarines), officially the Province of Camarines Norte (Central Bikol: Probinsya kan Amihanan na Camarines; Tagalog: Lalawigan ng Hilagang Camarines), is a province in the Philippines located in the Bicol Region in Luzon. Its capital is Daet, while Labo is most populous town in the province. The province borders Quezon to the west, Camarines Sur to the south, and the Philippine Sea to the north. It has historically been a Bikol-speaking region. However, there has been a language shift in recent years to Tagalog, which is more commonly used nowadays.
