Perfect Summer Destination

Since it's already summer, i thought of posting this one, my perfect summer destination. Have you heard about Canigao Island? Well, it's the mini Boracay for us Leyteños.

Located at Matalum Leyte, this popular island welcomes you with it's most crystal clear water and white sand, no doubt it's very popular today. Canigao also has a fish sanctuary. Snorkeling is one of the activities here you'll enjoy the most. You can tour the island with just half an hour under the heat of the sun so don't forget to bring your sarongs and hats.

When it comes to transportation, there are several ports or jump off points to the island. You will find one at Bato Leyte port and there are 3 jump off points also along Matalum Leyte itself., so you have several options. Canigao Island is very popular, ask anyone at the community and they will tell you where to go. Minimum fare for the pump boats is at 450pHp as of January 2010. If you are from Cebu, I would like to recommend that you will take Fiji or Southern Pacific at Pier 3 since these will dock in Bato Leyte port.

Enjoy the photos below, these are my favorite Canigao experience!
