Calanggaman / Kalanggaman Island – Palompon

Kalanggaman is a small island paradise with a land area of about two hectares situated between north of Cebu and Leyte. Belonging to the town of Palompon, Leyte, it is about an hour ride by boat either from Palompon or Villaba,Leyte. What makes this island unique is that it has two sand bars , one which protrudes towards the east and the other at the southern end. The eastern sand bar stretches for more than 200 meters into the sea, while the other one is only half as long which is submerged under water during high tides.

    If you ride on a pumpboat, it’s 40 mins. away from Bogo, Cebu. I’ve been in Kalanggaman since grades school. I really missed the place! It’s nice to do snorkeling especially during low tide.
