Kalanggaman Island, Palompon, Leyte, Philippines

A remote island located in Palompon, Leyte. Recently got their electricity out of the sun energy. No residences in the island, just caretakers. This unique place is quite small for you to take a hike to the entire island shore. This is good place for beach lover, quiet and serene, has white sand and the famous long sandbar. Just be careful when you step down to the water because of the strong current of water. A local caretaker told us that almost every late afternoon the island would have heavy rains and storms. I can't agree more when we sailed out back to town, we were hit by big waves which was a little scary and funny at the same time.

Also in Palompon, you can also find Jordan Spring, few miles away from the proper. A nice spring bath could brighten up your day after you're long exposure to the heat. Kalanggaman Island can be accessed from Cebu to Palompon via boat. It's an overnight trip that takes around 4-6 hours.
