STO. NIÑO COLD SPRING Catarman, Camiguin Province

Mambajao, MambaWOW! #4




As the island province of Camiguin has the greatest number of volcanoes, 7 major ones, and more than 20 cinder cones, the number of waterfalls and spring resorts match it. 



One can have a choice of a resort with FLAVORED WATER, HOT, or COLD. Yes, SODA FLAVORED water that tastes similar to the one athletes drink after an exercise.


Sto. Niño Cold Spring is in Bgy. Looc, Catarman, Camiguin Province. Food can be ordered in the resort but we stayed about 2 km down the hill.


Olympia Executive Room is a modest hometel, with strong hot or cold shower, but no room service. You have to walk to the town proper for food, which is nice as I was able to take some sunset photos along the way, (Courteous and friendly owner though).


Catarman is the new town after the original site was destroyed by the "birth" (eruption) of Mt. Vulcan on May 1, 1871. It's about 15 kilometers from the capital town of Mambajao and accessible by jeepneys and "rella". Nice to experience rustic life, and timed to photograph the Sunken Cemetery as the sun was

setting down.

Camiguin is not just about Lanzones that sell as low as 10 pesos per kilo during festival season, but think of the island as nature at its best and worst.
