We joined a group tour for Php800.00/person inclusive of round trip boat ride and lunch. It's a big boat that can accommodate up to 40 passengers.
How can I ever describe this island? I'm simply speechless and still in awe with its beauty till this time. What more if I'll see you during the summer? I'm sure you are more stunning. Till now, I can't get you out of my mind. I'm just so in love with you.
There are two ways to reach this amazing island:
1. 1.5 to 2 hours boat ride from Malapascua Island (which we did)
2. from Tacloban, ride a van going to Ormoc (1.5 to 2 hrs), travel to Palompon (1 hr), then rent a boat going to Kalanggaman Island (another 1 hr)

Amidst the crazy weather, our trip pushed through. We were picked up by motorcycles from our hotel and took us to the port. I thought we were already late when we arrived but we still have waited for some "pasaway" guests. We were able to leave the port past 9:30AM.
The journey is a nerve wrecking one as we sailed against big waves. TG! our boat is quite big that it was able to sway with these waves. I was praying all throughout our journey while thinking of my kids back home.

After two hours, we safely arrived in this awesome island. From afar, you can already marvel at its stunning beauty (to think it's still typhoon season by this time).
