Exploring the WONDERS of Camiguin

 Since we didn’t have any breakfast, we decided to eat in some LIVE Seafood restaurant to satisfy our tummies after that tiring trip. The place was great and it was nice to actually relax our minds while taking a look at the wide sea.
About the foods, they were tasty and we even had some crabs. Tummy was happy again. 
The weather didn’t cooperate with us since rain kept on pouring already. However, that didn’t stop us from cancelling our tour in the island.

** First stop: Katibawasan Falls: It was way bigger than the one we have in Cebu. It is 250-feet majestic beauty surrounded by wild orchids, virgin trees and captivating surroundings.

** Second stop: The OLD church: It is also known as Catarman Church RUINS. It is devastated by volcanic erruptions in 1871. However, the beauty of an old Spanish church at the same time its culture during the Spanish era still remains there. The back view of the church is also recommended for pre-nup pictorials. :D

** Third stop: Sunken Cemetery: The whole capital of Camiguin, with its cemetery, sunk under the sea. In the following years, the sunken land and the gravestones can still be seen when the tide is low. But in 1948 until 1953, Mount Vulcan erupted again, sinking the whole area deeper, to around twenty feet. In 1982, a large cross was built on the solidified lava to mark the site that became the graves of the ancestors of the Camiguin people. It has become a sunken cemetery. Now, it is one of the world’s most unique diving sites.

** Fourth Stop: Side of the road: I forgot the name of this place but it's nice to have pictorials since the view of the sea and its mountains can all be seen.

** Fifth stop: Ardent Hot spring: This is the local hot spa with a natural pool about 40 degrees centigrade springing from the depths of Mt. Hibok-Hibok. Well, this is my favorite spot since I can rejuvenate both my mind and body.
