Sitting in front of the municipalities of Inopacan and Hindang, CUATRO ISLAS gathers 4 beautiful islands and has already started receiving attention from island lovers in both the local and international scene.

Its name, Cuatro Islas, means “four islands” in Spanish. The tourist spot consists of Mahaba Island, Apid Island, Digyo Island, and Himokilan Island. Each of them have their own pristine shoreline and thriving marine life. A wonder of nature you can explore and discover on your own!

In Mahaba Island, you can see pristine waters and unique rock formations. There is a very long stretch of white sand – hence its name. Sea turtles and underwater creatures thrive here, so snorkeling is a recommended activity.

Apid Island is a fishing village where you can learn the way of life of the locals. This is not usually visited by tourists since it is a residential area, but it also has beautiful white beaches.

The most popular will be Digyo Island. Sandbars and palm trees will welcome you upon setting foot on the island. There are closed cottages and camping tents available here, making it very ideal for tourists. It’s even named as Inopacan’s little Boracay.

Last but not the least will be Himokilan Island. This island belongs to the municipality of Hindang, so visiting might incur additional costs. However, it shares the beauty of the other islands and the rich marine life.

This bird-shaped island in Palompon, Leyte is called Kalanggaman – derived from the local word for bird “langgam.” It boasts a sandbar of pure white sand stretching at both sides of the island. Currently, one side is shorter than the other due to the different typhoons that passed the region but its pristine beauty is still regal.

Kalanggaman is occupied by palm trees, creamy white sand, and a perfectly clear blue sea. It can get crowded on the holidays and summer season, but everyone can still get their own private spots within the island.

Aside from the sandbar, Kalanggaman houses a marine sanctuary of diverse ocean life and corals. Nearby are famous dive spots you can negotiate with locals to visit.

It is preferably wise to visit this area during the summer season of March to May to avoid the rainy season.
