Conquering Northern Mindanao: White Island Beach at Camiguin

This is the fourth part of our 4-days-3-nights Conquering Northern Mindanao trip.

For our 2nd day in Camiguin, we started it with a tour at the famous White Island Beach. The boat ride to the island is part of the room package we got. White Island is basically, a white sandbar located just 1.4 km off the northern shore of Mambajao in Camiguin. It is literally just a sand bar, with no trees or shelter of any kind so it is advisable to go here early in the morning since it will be too hot in the afternoon.

The Boat Ride and the Blue Waters of Camiguin

The boat ride took about 10 minutes from the resort. As we were docking, we can’t help but notice the wonderful view surrounding the White Island. From here, you could see Mt. Hibok-Hibok in all of its glory. And of course, you could see sand, sand, and more sand haha. The sand is so white and is comparable to the sands found in Boracay. I could roll around all day if I wanted to. It is also advisable to bring your own towel or blanket or umbrella so you could just lounge around and avoid the sun. We stayed there for about an hour but then it got too hot so we decided to go back to Paguia's Cottages and fix our things to prepare for our part 2 of the Camiguin Tour.
