Do u know how huge indonesia is?? Phil nature or islands is nothing compared to indonesia. My point is you dont say indonesia is too commercialized. There are much much more unexplored part of Indo.. 😉
Been to Camiguin 3 weeks ago. Toured the island with a scooter. Lot of tourist attraction packed in a one small island. My favourite place was the White Island. View is amazing
Love your videos Gareth.My beloved PH never run out of surprises from one beautiful island to another.I just finished watching your last video of northern luzon and now here comes a video of camiguin.The whole island of camiguin in one video awesome,beautiful island.Looking forward for another upload.cheers
Hi Gareth. You are still in the Philippines?? Wow!! Thank you for loving my country, the food, the people, the view. I love it that you’re loving every single moment. Your vlogs are very educational and amazing. PLUS you ARE very easy on the eye. It’s really a pleasure watching you.
Watching this during this pandemic makes me a little bit emotional. Soon when this pandemic is over, gonna make sure to visit this place. Your videos are giving so much hope right now. Thanks for your beautiful insights about our country!
Amazing Philippines island ,,. Wonderful beach wow , fantastic water falls,., beautiful green mountain. Nice hiking, thank you very much for sharing watching form Los Angeles
Wow. Camiguin Island is gorgeous! The hidden waterfall your friend took you to looks like the perfect place to explore and appreciate nature, while Tuasan seems like a great spot to visit if you want to hang out with a lot of locals. They seem so friendly and the coconut looks like it was delicious! I first saw the old Spanish church ruins, underwater cemetery, and giant clam sanctuary on Mike Corey's channel a couple of months ago. I'm glad another of my favorite travel vloggers visited these three incredible places! I'm still in awe of them, watching your video. So cool! The color of the water around White Island is absolutely stunning. Unreal! Love the conservation efforts the locals are doing with the giant clams and mangrove park, too. And simply put, Mantigue Island looks like paradise. I don't think I'd want to leave! Awesome vlog, man. Beautiful work. Looking forward to your Siargao videos!!
:-) Thanks Bro, Camiguin Island is on my Bucket list and a Friend of mine has relatives there so I'm looking forward to visiting them and the Island :-). Great Video as always :-)

its nice to know that foreign people come to our country.. even US neither dont or cannot get there thou.. Filipinos now also get into trips/travelling to see abd check out our very own Native Land! thank you.
I miss the island where I grow up those sunny days and a beautiful beach to walk everyday. Now in New York almost snowing whole week with the weather temperatures of -10 Celsius today and -13 last night it was freezing cold.. hope you enjoy your stay in the island..
Been there and White beach is one of the best I've seen too, a great island and its drinking water is the best tasting I've come across outside of my native Sweden.
Wow! I am getting jealous now on Gareth because of all these sunshine and pleasant tropical weather! As we are in Toronto, Canada now in minus 12 and boon-chilling temperature!
I truly agree with you Gareth the White island is a gem. When I was elemetary my father invited his siblings n their family to spend the Holy Week in Camiguin. Japanese were the only tourist knew about the island . They spend more time in the hot spring n the pool was clean. No fishing net above the pool n only surrounded with big rocks....same thing in Katabawasan fall. The town was uncrowded. At my time the place was simple n peaceful.
White island looks much bigger and longer compared to to the last time I went there in the mid 90s. Camiguin is known for the lush mountains, super cold water pools, hot springs, and alluring waterfalls. All the best, Gareth!
An island with a complete tourist destinations like white sand beaches, water falls, hot and cold springs, sulfur sands which is good to the skin, etc..
So happy you got to explore the home island of my birth, Camiguin! But sad you missed out the tallest waterfalls, the 60 feet high KATIBAWASAN FALLS , as well the Bora Soda Water Spring and the Sto. Niño cold spring.
Thanks Gareth Leonard for promoting my Island Camiguin, from the word Come Again guys! Camiguin guys! I've been to 54 countries & practically whole of Philippines, but at 55yrs old, it seem not enough! Enjoy your journey young man! 😇😄😀 Travel Safe!😉

Im so proud ..im a Pinay and watching ur vlogs about beautiful spots in Pinas melts my ❣️
Beautiful Camiguin! Sounds like "Come Again". Come Again to Camiguin. I miss the Philippines. :(
So many unexplored places in the Philippines. I hope they stay that way so they don’t end up too commercialised like Thailand or Indonesia.
Do u know how huge indonesia is?? Phil nature or islands is nothing compared to indonesia. My point is you dont say indonesia is too commercialized. There are much much more unexplored part of Indo.. 😉
@@tinmiles1285 hahahaha. Well, Philippines has it all. 😜
@Kay Flip what the heck. All of INDONESIA'S 17,000 PLUS ISLANDS can only be compared to a few islands of the Philippines. That's a fact 😂😂😂
@@tinmiles1285 philippines is the best check it out sometimes
Point taken.
Been to Camiguin 3 weeks ago. Toured the island with a scooter. Lot of tourist attraction packed in a one small island. My favourite place was the White Island. View is amazing
Met my future wife in CDO, and spent a few days on Camiguin. Amazing place.
