Caramoan Islands were unknown to commercial tourism because of its remoteness. You will experience a bumpy ride and at least 1.5 hours boating from Sabang beach to Caramoan. Thus, its natural beauty was hidden and only few adventurers were go there. Although in recent years, Caramoan was already being visited by some foreign and locals, it was still not as jammed-packed as the Boracay Island, until “Koh-Lanta Caramoan 2008”, a French version of the reality show “Survivor”, had Caramoan Islands particularly the Gota Beach as their shooting location. That was an opportunity to recognized the Caramoan Islands as a Philippine island destination for foreign and local tourist that gives a high percentage of visitors every year until today.

Lagay na sa bucket list yan! The place looks beautiful.
i've never been here before but i'd surely like to visit someday.
anywhere where there are beautiful beaches =)
Magkano na spend mo sa trip mo dito? Naka inggit!!! Ang ganda2x ng beach tapos white sand pa!
I really love how this place is in a remote area - for the purpose of preserving it's natural beauty. :)
The remoteness of a place is not a hindrance to make it know and to be the object for tourism. It takes to be explored and to be promoted. Since you've already visited Caramoan group of Islands in Camarines Sur, you're now in the best person who could promote this, could promote its naturalness, its beauty and all its amenities to you closed friends, business associates, acquaintances, among other.
I agree with Sir Gil. The remoteness of this place makes it really fascinating. Yung alam mong malinis saka tahimik. I would love to go here someday. :)

which islands did you go? Been to Caramoan in 2010 but only to 5 islands - i still trying to find time to visit the remaining five! I totally enjoyed my time there and was lucky to be there when Survivor Syria was shooting so met the crew and took pictures at the cast away place near gota!
blue and greens... lovely combination. lovely shots... ever visited glan beaches in sarangani? http://trunklocker.blogspot.com/2011/05/here-comes-sun-glan-padidu.html ... Yahweh bless.
Never been to CamSur,I hope we can visit the place. Very nice!
Whenever I see a post about travel, I couldn't help it but think when I could visit that place ^_^
I'm thinking if going there by December would be a good idea or not.
hi Mark, I think the best you can go there is on summer. So that you enjoy the island hopping because the weather is good.
I want to go here! How much is the budget?
