boat going to Kalanggaman Island
 From Naval – Ride a van to Lemon Junction (1.5Hr ; P80). From there ride another van going to
Palompon (1Hr ; P50).
 From Cebu – There are several options from Cebu City going to Kalanggaman Island.
 Via New Maya Port – Ride a Ceres Bus at the North Bus Station going to the Old Maya Port
(5Hrs ; P180) then a tricycle to New Maya Port (20Min ; P20). From there, you can rent a boat
going to Kalanggaman Islandr (2Hrs ; P3500/20pax/way).
 Via Polambato Port in Bogo – From Cebu City, ride a bus at the North Bus Station going to
Bogo (3Hrs ; P140) then a tricycle to Polambato Port (25Min ; P150/tric). In Polambato Port,
ride a Super Shuttle Ferry going to Palompon. Please note that there is only one schedule daily
at 12PM.
 Cebu via Cokaliong Shipping – From Cebu City, ride a ferry vessel going to Palompon (5Hrs
; P320). Kindly check website for schedule.
 Powdery White Sands – This is one of the biggest blunders surrounding Kalanggaman Island. This
island is charming and beautiful beyond compare but it doesn’t have a stretch of powdery white
sand shores. The beach and the long sandbar is a stretch of creamy white sugary sands and rough
coral stones. You can’t lay flat on your back or walk barefoot on the beach as it will most likely
hurt. I tell you. White powdery sands are a thing of Boracay and Calaguas Islands but
Kalanggaman Island? Nope!
 Food – Food and water is hard to come by in the island. There are no eateries there. There is one
store but it doesn’t sell food. Bottled mineral water can be bought in the lone store there so as other
beverages like soda and coffee but they are seldom cold. If you don’t want to starve and thirst, bring
with you enough food and water before you go to the island. Just make sure to bring your trash back
with you when you go home.
 he Beach Water – The waters surrounding Kalanggaman Island has one of the most beautiful
shades of blue. From clear turquoise to azure then further away are the darker blues, this stunner
prides itself in its pristine and rich waters teeming with life and colors down below.
 Amenities – The municipality of Palompon is doing its best to provide satisfactory experience to
tourists visiting Kalanggaman Island. In fact, a pavilion intended to be used as tourists lounge was
under construction during my visit. It was an eye sore for me actually as I’m more into preserving
the natural beauty of the island but despite the on-going developments, the island still lacks the
amenities typical to a beach resort. Toilet and bath rooms are poorly maintained and they stink! (I’m
cringing to the thought) Although they have newly build ones. Some day tour cottages were not in
a very good state and they looked as if they are about to fall apart.
 Accommodation – Some of you might have already seen those wooden cottages shaped like an
indian tent. Yes you can rent those for P500/night but that’s just it. You will need to shell out more
for renting mattress, pillows and sheets. I’d say bringing a tent and camping at the beach is still the
best option for those who are staying for the night.
 Cleansing Water – “Salty air. Salted hair.” A quote all beach lovers like to flaunt in social media
along with a beautiful photo of them frolicking under the sun looking at the vast ocean but as we
might all be, we hate going to bed with that nasty hair and sticky skin. Unfortunately in
Kalanggaman Island, you might need to endure that sticky feeling until you get back in Palompon
since there is no fresh water available in the shower so you could clean up.
 Bring enough food and water. You can shop for supplies at the supermarket prior to going to the
island.
 Most of the boats there are big and can accommodate up to 20 passengers and priced at P3000 for
a roundtrip transfer. If you are travelling alone, you can share with other passengers to save cost.
 Travel to the island are normally prohibited during unfavorable weather and sea condition. It’s best
to check the weather prior to travelling to Palompon or better yet check with the local tourism office
if travel to the Kalanggaman Island is possible on your preferred date.
 Bring snorkel gears. The beach is great but the real paradise lies underwater. If you don’t have
snorkel, you can rent one in the island for a price of P300 for one full day of use.
 Day Tour cottages aren’t free. They are to be rented for P500/day which comes with a table and
four chairs. If you are staying overnight, bring with you tents and camping gears.
 There is no electricity in the island so better get your gadgets charged to full battery before going
there.
 Some tour/boat operators in Palompon offer a combined tour to Kalanggaman and Malapascua
Islands. For this, prior arrangements must be made to ensure smooth and hassle free travel.

WHERE CAN YOU STAY IN/NEAR PALOMPON

If you don’t want to spend the night in Kalanggaman Island but missed the trip to your next
destination then you can stay in these budget accommodations. Please bare in mind that the
municipality of Palompon is pretty small so choices of places to stay at for the night are also very
limited.
