Camiguin, known as the “Island Born of Fire,” is a small yet striking island shaped by its volcanic past. Its landscapes range from black volcanic shores to dazzling white-sand shoals like White Island, a picture-perfect sandbar framed by mountain peaks. Offshore, the Sunken Cemetery, now a vibrant reef, offers a unique snorkelling experience, while nearby Mantigue Island’s marine sanctuary is ideal for calm-water swimming. On land, visitors can cool off at Katibawasan Falls, soak in volcanic hot springs, or hike the slopes of Mt. Hibok-Hibok for panoramic views of the island.
This is a destination that suits many kinds of travellers. Nature lovers can explore waterfalls and lush trails, active adventurers can take on volcano treks, while snorkellers and divers enjoy colourful reefs just a short boat ride away. For those seeking a slower pace, there are quiet beaches, heritage ruins, and small-town charm, with the colourful Lanzones Festival in October adding an extra cultural highlight.
