Last week we have a long vacation and I hope you spend your vacation wisely especially to those people who have work. As an employee there is only few months that have a long day vacation, just like this march we have a Holy Week which has Four (4) days in relaxing our selves including Saturday and Sunday.
I and my partner together with our friends spend our Holy Week at Camiguin Island for the three (3) reasons. The 1st reason is, this is my 1st step in Camiguin Island and I’m so exited to go there and to experience the new things out there and also to meet our grand, grand parents in this Island. The 2nd reason is I would like to experience there PANAAD 2008which is held every year and a tradition they will walk around the Camiguin as a sacrifice. My 3rd and final reason is to visit there beautiful spot because we know that summer is almost there and Camiguin Island has many places that tourist would like to visit it.
They have lots of spring (Sto. Nino COLD SPRING and ARDENT COLD SPRING), there beautiful mountains, the falls (KATIBAWASAN FALLS)that they have, the OLD CHURCH of Camiguin Island and whose to forget to visit there SUNKEN Cemetery in the middle of the sea if you are there and don’t forget to experience the enjoyment of there White Island, Walk there WALKWAY and there RUNWAY. These are the few beautiful places I’ve visited and enjoy at Camiguin Island. There are lots of tourist spot there which is I did not visit it. There are also big an known resorts in Camiguin just like the HIGHLAND RESORT which is they are popular when it comes to falls, the PARAS RESORT a resort which is in a seaside and in front of the white island.
The travel time from Cagayan de Oro to Camiguin Island is from 4-5 hours. From Cagayan de Oro you just ride a bus to go to Balingoan which has 1 hr. and 30 minutes to 2 hours. From Balingoan you will ride the Barge or the (Lantsa) to go to Camiguin Island and the travel time is 30 minutes to 1 hour travel.
I capture some photos at Camiguin Island.

Hi @Eana..Thanks for visiting Travels ans Tours, Yong pagpunta namin sa Camiguin last year ay di package yon, we spent 3k-4k individual, so 6k-8k yong gastos naming dalawa kasama na ang accommodation..compare sa ngayong latest na punta namin doon na mura lang ang gastos namin kasi marami kami(8 in the group)..isa sa naka mura namin doon ay we rent a house which is 1500/night with 3 bed rooms, with aircon and TV in 2 nights n 3 days. Bali tag 2300 pesos lang kami including na ang pamasahe namin sa Paras Sea Cat na 800 round trip at yong rent namin sa van for 2 days which is 3500 kasama na ang bayad ng driver..Ask kalang kong meron kapang itatanong..I’m willing to help..:-)
