The Island of Camiguin




          A peaceful dreamland awaits you on Camiguin, a fabulous getaway Island of steep volcanoes, lush jungle and white beaches like White Island. In this pristine setting, you'll find not only hot springs To soothe your body but also the clear pool and cold spring of Sto. Nino.

The stunning Katibawasan Falls and hiking trails to thrill your senses. The spectacular 250-foot falls (76 m.) cascades down to a pool surrounded by orchids and ferns. Located 4 kms. from Mambajao. This is also the favorite jump-off point for trekkers and mountaineers in search of adventure in the slopes of Mt. Hibok-Hibok.

People from around the Philippines flock to the Lanzones Festival. The lanzones, a fruit with pale brown skin and a sweet translucent flesh, which is the main income source of Mambajao.

In the heart of the island bubbles the flowing mineral pools of Ardent Hot Springs. Mists rise from the heated waters running down from the vents of Hibok-Hibok Volcano, the only active one among the seven on the island. Revel in the therapeutic waters. Picnic beneath the sheltering trees. Enjoy a game of darts or table tennis, comfortable dormitory - type rooms and duplex cottages are available for overnighters.

By day, take a side trip to some of Camiguin Island's attractions: the clear pools of Sto. Nino Cold Spring, the slender beauty of Katibawasan Falls, and the isolated white-sand bar called simply White Island. This is also the favorite jump-off point for trekkers and mountaineers in search of adventure in the slopes of Mt. Hibok-Hibok.
