Has anyone been to camiguin island? Google has helped me a lot about its places of interest, places to stay and activities to do. However, I would like to know who has a first hand experience of the place.

I am going there in October and I am going on a budget tour LOL Yes, I am saving for much exciting place to visit *winks* But that's another story.

Yes, I need details of Camiguin. The good side (and the bad side as well, if there's any like too crowded, beach area has seaweed etc.)

Hello ladies! Camiguin is such a beautiful Island thou it's not that popular compared to Bohol. You can find such spectacular and fantastic views, sceneries etc.Though its weird but 'The floating cemetery " is one of them. Try to look for this website for your beach choices (islandcamiguin.com camiguin.redbearnet.com/places.html)

There are daily flights from Manila to Cagayan De Oro City's Lumbia Airport. From the airport a jeepney ride will take to Agora Bus Terminal, where there is a bus going to Balingoan, Misamis Oriental, a coastal town that serves as a entry point to Camiguin. It takes an hour to cross the port of Benoni, or 45 minutes to cross towards the port of Guinsiliban. From Cagayan De Oro , there is also a daily catamaran that plies the CDO-Camiguin route. The same ferry also travels daily from Camiguin to Tagblaran, Bohol and vise versa.

Aside from the above-mentioned means of reaching Camiguin, a ferry also caters from Bohol to Camiguin vice-versa route daily. Specifically 8:00 o'clock in the morning from Camiguin and 1:00 o'clock in the afternoon from Bohol. The route docks at Balbagon Wharf and Jagna, Bohol respectively.

How did I know this?- It's because I lived half of my life in Cagayan de Oro, Cebu and Bohol.

Enjoy and pasalubing ha Resuri:P
