White Island, Sand formation in Camiguin, Philippines
White Island extends 700 meters into the Bohol Sea with pure white sand surrounded by blue-green waters near the northern coast of Camiguin.
The sand formation continues to change its shape throughout seasons due to the oceanic currents and wind patterns of the Bohol Sea.
Local fishermen from Yumbing village transport visitors to White Island, maintaining traditional Filipino maritime practices in Camiguin province.
Boats depart from Yumbing port between 5:00 AM and 5:00 PM, with fees of 550 pesos per boat for four passengers plus 50 pesos environmental fee.
The white sandbar offers unobstructed views of Mount Hibok-Hibok and Mount Vulcan, creating a natural viewing platform in the middle of water.
