My new island crush is Kalanggaman Island Leyte and it is somewhere in the East of the Philippines. In a country with so many gorgeous islands it is hard to stand out, but from the moment I arrived it was love at first sight and I decided to write a Kalanggaman Island blog post about my new crush with all my travel tips and things to know. How to get there, where to stay, the facilities, the entrance fee and more.

I already wrote a blog about the Northern places to visit in Cebu, this blog is about the Southern Cebu tourist destinations. There are many things to do in Cebu and it is fairly easy to travel around. But if you are looking for some more comfort I would recommend staying in one place and book tours around the island to see the tourist spots in Cebu.

Island hopping is a great way to visit the best places in North Cebu, because most of the tourist destinations in North Cebu are islands close to the main island. This in contrary to all the cool things to do in South Cebu where you can find whale sharks, waterfalls, viewpoints and great hikes all on Cebu mainland. Up North there are three main Cebu tourist spots that are the top destinations and a perfect escape to unwind. Get the real island feeling on either Malapascua, Bantayan or Kalanggaman.

I was beyond excitement for my trip to Sumilon Bluewater Island Resort as it was my first time on a private island resort. How am I going to experience being locked up on a tiny island? Do I get bored? Answering this question after being stuck on Sumilon Island for a couple days is simple: I never wanted to leave!

When people ask me about the best country I have been, I hardly ever name Thailand or Philippines. First off I think it is really hard to compare countries as every place is unique and has its own charm. I always come forward with a list of 5 amazing countries (Argentina, Nepal, South Africa, New Zealand and Hawaii) in where I had fantastic travel adventures and it goes without saying that traveling to Thailand and traveling to Philippines can be added to that list.

The thing is, I have been to both countries so many times, I kind of take it for granted sometimes.
