Canigao Island — Local services in Matalom

Actually, I wanted to put 5 stars but I must say the LGU under of Canigao Island can do more to make the Island zero waste of plastics, trash and educate tourists, locals, guests how they can keep this beautiful Island clean and preserve. All of us have a responsibility. I tried to take a swim at night but the rocks are hard to step on so need to wear water shoes. There's a lot of jellyfish also so I got scared swimming but I love how peaceful at night and great to do camping here. Bathroom and water facilities needs improvement. I was here with my cousin and her daughter. You can buy fish and sea shells here you can ask them also to cook for you. It's good to bring your own food. It's kinda expensive to buy the prices are too high. You can rent or bring your own tent. Everything here is rented even the space where you want to put your tent. Fact check: the LGU OF MATALOM LEYTE just done a clean up drive of the Island. Thank you to the LGU!!...

The island itself is beautiful. My family and I were enjoying our time at the island. I do have some suggestions that they need to upgrade/fix their toilet door, they are falling apart . people are leaving their empty liquor bottles, they should implement their sign "PACK IN/PACK OUT". Before we leave from the mainland port the lady that was in-charged was giving us a briefing of what to do while we are at the island and we were told that we need to be back at the boat by 2pm for pick up, I don't get it why we need to be pick up that early while their sign was the check out is 5pm? we arrived at the island around 9:30ish and needed to be at the boat by 2pm for pick and send back...

Little Boracay I would say, a small island that sometimes gets so crowded during summer which is kinda sad. How to get there? Pier going to the island is just behind the municipal plaza of Matalom, fair is 60 back and forth. Cottages are available in the island at a very reasonable price, a tent may also came in handy (tent rentals are also available in the island by the way). Things to do in the island: snorkling, scuba diving if you have your gears, a walk around the island, a visit to the sanctuary and chill of course. :) (the photo was taken at the pier...
