CILYC

Northern Mindanao

Camiguin

More volcanoes per square kilometre than any island on earth — a sunken cemetery, hot springs at sea's edge, apricot reefs below.

| ARRIVAL

Camiguin rises out of the sea in a way few islands do.

Volcano after volcano, more per square kilometre than anywhere else on earth, close enough together that the skyline looks almost architectural.

​

Sailing in, the water near the old sunken cemetery goes still and glassy — a quiet marker over what the island lost to an eruption more than a century ago.

| Why We Sail Here

Geology and hospitality, in the same afternoon.

Hot springs surface at the sea's edge, apricot-coloured reefs sit just below the surface, and a sunken cemetery — one of the country's more striking, understated landmarks — is best appreciated slowly, from a vessel that isn't in a hurry to move on.
