Camiguin is accessible by Air and Sea from Manila and Cebu.  You can take direct flights from Manila domestic airport or Cebu International airport.  The other option is to take boats from Manila to Cagayan de Oro then take ferries to Camiguin.

Things to see

Camiguin was still an untapped tourist destination until a movie in the 90’s was shot in this island featuring the mysterious beauty of this place.  Camiguin offers a lot to tourists from old century churches, beautiful forest and magnificent beaches. Sto Rosario church in Sagay built in 1882  and the church ruins of San Roque are a must to see.  The famous Sandbar of White Island and the sunken cemetery who submerged after a volcanic eruption.  There is also the week long festival of the Lanzones Festival  which are a must to see in this island.
