Camiguin ({{lang-ceb|Lalawigan sa Camiguin}}) is an island province in the Philippines located in the Bohol Sea, about {{convert|10|km|mi}} off the northern coast of Mindanao. It is geographically part of Region X, the Northern Mindanao Region of the country and formerly a part of Misamis Oriental province.

Camiguin is the second-smallest province in the country in both population and land area after Batanes.[3] The provincial capital is Mambajao, which is also the province's largest municipality in both area and population.{{PSGC detail|nscb}}

The province is famous for its sweet lanzones, to which its annual Lanzones Festival is dedicated, and its interior forest reserves, collectively known as the Mount Hibok-Hibok Protected Landscape, which has been declared by all Southeast Asian nations as an ASEAN Heritage Park. The province also boasts three National Cultural Treasures, namely, the Old Bonbon Church ruins in Catarman, the Sunken Cemetery of Catarman, and the Spanish-era watchtower in Guinsiliban. The three sites were declared for “possessing outstanding historical, cultural, artistic and/or scientific value which is highly significant and important to the country and nation.”

Additionally, the island province has numerous Important Cultural Treasures, such as the old Mambajao Fountain, Old Mambajao Municipal Building, the façade of the Santo Rosario Church in Sagay town, and 14 heritage and ancestral houses. The sites were declared for “having exceptional cultural, artistic and historical significance to the Philippines.” All cultural treasures were declared by the National Commission for Culture and the Arts. There have been moves to establish a dossier nomination for the province to be included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.[3]

History

Etymology

The name Camiguin is derived from the native word Kamagong, a species of ebony tree that thrives near Lake Mainit in the province of Surigao del Norte, the region from which the earlier inhabitants of the islands, the Manobos, came. Kamigin, the local language of Camiguin, is the northernmost variant of the Manobo languages.[4]

An earlier Spanish geography book spells the island as Camiguing. There is reason to suppose the Spaniards dropped the final g.[5] Today it is rendered as Camiguín.

Classical era

The island of Camiguin is believed to first have been inhabited by the Manobo people of Surigao del Norte, as evidenced by the distinctly connected language between the two groups. The island was used as a trading stop point by various merchants and traders from the Rajahnate of Butuan, the Kedatuan of Dapitan, the ancient people of the Anda peninsula, and possibly the Rajahnate of Cebu and the animist Maranao of Lanao before the Islamization of the Lanao provinces.

Spanish colonial era

Old Spanish documents indicate that the renowned explorers Ferdinand Magellan and Miguel Lopez de Legaspi landed in Camiguin in 1521 and 1565, respectively. The first Spanish settlement was established in 1598 in what is now Guinsiliban. Guinsiliban, which comes from the old Kinamiguin word Ginsil-ipan (which means “to look out for pirates from a watchtower”) has an old Spanish watchtower where the Camiguinons kept watch for Moro pirates.[7]

The first major Spanish settlement, established in 1679, was called Katagman or Katadman (known as Catarman). The settlement grew and prospered but was destroyed by the eruption of Mt. Vulcan in 1871. The former location is what is now Barangay Bonbon of Catarman.[7]

Sagay, located south of Catarman, was formally established as a town in 1848. The word Sagay is derived from the name of poisonous fruit trees that grow in the area. Mambajao became a town in 1855. The name was coined from the Visayan terms mamahaw, meaning to usher breakfast, and bajao, which is leftover boiled rice. In the early 1900s, Mambajao prospered and became the busiest port in Northern Mindanao. Mahinog was established as a municipality in 1860. The name Mahinog comes from a Visayan word meaning "to ripen" or "to become ripe". Although Guinsiliban was the oldest settlement in the island, it was only in 1950 that it became a municipality. Mahinog was formerly governed by Mambajao while Guinsiliban was formally governed from Sagay.[7]

American colonial era

In 1901, in the middle of the Philippine-American War, American soldiers landed in Camiguin to assume political control over the island. A group of Camiguinons, armed with bolos and spears, led by Valero Camaro, fought them in a short battle in Catarman. Valero Camaro was killed by a bullet in the forehead and became one of the Camiguin patriots of the early independence movement.[7]

In 1903, the first public school in Camiguin was built in Mambajao, and in 1904 the first public water system was installed.[7]

World War II

On June 18, 1942, the Japanese Imperial Army landed in Camiguin and set up a government in Mambajao. They gutted central Mambajao in reprisal to guerrilla activities in the area. The remains of some of these buildings still exist today.[7]

Independence

On July 4, 1946, the Philippines gained independence from the US. Camiguin was then part of Misamis Oriental. In 1958, it became a sub-province.[6] It was made into a separate province on June 18, 1966, and formally inaugurated in 1968.[7]

Geography

The province consists primarily of Camiguin Island, as well as a few other surrounding minor islets including:

  • White Island, about {{convert|5|km}} west of the town of Mambajao
  • Mantigue Island, about {{convert|14|km}} south of Mambajao.

Physical

Camiguin Island is a pearl-shaped island with an area of approximately {{convert|238|km2|abbr=on}}.[7] The island measures about {{convert|23|km}} at its longest and {{convert|14.5|km}} at its widest breadth.[8] The island is mountainous with the highest elevation reaching over {{convert|5000|ft|abbr=on}}. It is encircled by a national road with a length of about {{convert|64|km}}. As of the August 1, 2007 census, the province has a 5th class income classification with a population of 81,293.[9]

Administrative divisions

Camiguin comprises five municipalities, which are further subdivided into a total of 58 barangays.[7]

The people of Camiguin are called Camiguingnon or Camiguinon ({{lang-es|Camigueños (m)/Camigueñas (f)}}). The language widely spoken in the province is Cebuano, although Kinamigin is condisered to be the indigenous language. Today, Kinamigin is still spoken by few in the municipalities of Sagay and Guinsiliban.[10] English is also widely spoken by the local population.[11]

Religion

Camiguin is a predominantly Roman Catholic province with 95%{{citation needed|date=June 2016}} adherence. The remaining religions are represented by various Protestant and few Islamic groups.

Economy

The economy is based upon fishing and farming, with copra providing the greatest income contribution. Lanzones has since then became the main agricultural product of the island province.[11] Other agricultural products are abaca, rice, mangoes and other fruit trees. The growing tourism industry has improved the economy of the province. Small cottage industries have increased in number to accommodate the influx of visitors.

Education

Camiguin has three colleges: Fatima College of Camiguin (FCC), Camiguin Polytechnic State College (CPSC), with a satellite campus and Camiguin School of Arts and Trades (CSAT) and a technical education offered by the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA). A complete secondary and elementary education is available as well, both in private and public. There are also day care centers offering nursery and pre-school education.

The province has a total number of 68 day care centers managed by the Department of Social Welfare and Development (DSWD) and 56 public and private elementary schools. There are 13 secondary schools, 3 private institutions, and the rest government-owned. There is one special school, which accommodates underprivileged or special children, the Family-to-Family School and Farm. It is managed by a Non-Government Organization (NGO).

There is also the Alternative Learning System Education Sector which helps individuals through its literacy cum livelihood program.[12]

Man-made attractions

Lanzones Festival

Each year in the third week of October, a festival is held to celebrate the Lanzones (locally called bwahan/buahan), a small grape-sized tropical fruit grown all over the island. Lanzones grown in Camiguin is considered to be the sweetest. The unique flavor is due to the richness of the volcanic soil. The week-long Lanzones Festival is one of numerous colorful events in the Philippines.

Churches

Several centuries-old Spanish Colonial and 20th century churches are found in various parts of the island.

  • Santo Rosario Church: The Santo Rosario Church in the municipality of Sagay was built in 1882. The facade of the church is a declared Important Cultural Property of the Philippines.
  • Old Bonbon Church Ruins of Catarman: The church of the Old Bonbon was destroyed and partly submerged by volcanic debris during the eruption and formation of Mount Vulcan from 1871 to 1875. Also known as Gui-ob Church, only the ruins of the church and bell tower remains of the old town. A modern white lighthouse was recently erected close to the bell tower. The archaeological site has been declared as a National Cultural Treasure of the Philippines.
  • Baylao Church: The Church located in Brgy. Baylao in Mambajao is claimed to be miraculous attributed to saving many lives during the last volcanic eruption of Hibok-hibok.

Old ancestral homes

Beautiful and ornate ancestral homes dating back to the Spanish Colonial Period and American Colonial Period are still abundant and can be found along the streets of Camiguin. Fourteen of these heritage houses has been declared as Important Cultural Properties of the Philippines. These include the Borromeo ancestral house, Bacut ancestral house, Luspo ancestral house, Neri ancestral house, Nery ancestral house, Nerio-Chan ancestral house, Corrales ancestral house, Corrales y Gamali ancestral house, Francisco ancestral house, Juni ancestral house and Lim ancestral house, and Catalino Chan and Eleuterio Chan ancestral houses.[13]

Other structures

The province is dotted with numerous heritage structures and zones from the classical, Spanish, and American eras, but most of its heritage sites are from the 300-year Spanish colonial era.

  • Sunken Cemetery of Catarman - an ancient cemetery which sank beneath the sea due to a volcanic eruption. The archaeological site has been declared as a National Cultural Treasure of the Philippines.
  • Spanish-era watchtower in Guinsiliban - the watchtower of Guinsiliban was one of the most important in the area during the Spanish colonial era. The watchtower has been declared as a National Cultural Treasure of the Philippines.
  • Old Mambajao Fountain - a unique-style fountain from the Spanish era. It has been declared an Important Cultural Property of the Philippines.
  • Old Mambajao Municipal building - a well-preserved Spanish-era government building which has been declared an Important Cultural Property of the Philippines.[14]

Natural attractions

Volcanoes

The island of Camiguin, of volcanic origin, is composed of four stratovolcanoes. Each volcano (except Mount Guinsiliban) is made up of several flank domes.[15] The only volcano in the island with historical eruptions is Hibok-Hibok, which last erupted in 1953.

Below are the list of volcanoes, arranged with respect to its location from north to south:

  • Mount Hibok-Hibok{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|12|4|N|124|40|31|E|name=Hibok-Hibok Volcano|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}and Mount Vulcan{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|12|49|N|124|38|51|E|name=Mount Vulcan|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}are the northernmost and the only active volcanic vents in Camiguin. Mount Vulcan, ironically known as the Old Volcano [{{convert|671|m|ft|abbr=on}}], is actually the youngest volcano in the island, born in 1871 starting as a fissure vent on the northwestern flank of Mount Hibok-Hibok [{{convert|4370|ft}}] (see Volcanic eruption below). As a parasitic cone of Hibok-Hibok, it is still considered part of volcano.[16] Some of the other flank domes of the volcano are Carling Hill{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|12|53|N|124|40|12|E|name=Carling Hill|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}, Tres Marias Hills{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|11|23|N|124|41|14|E|name=Tres Marias Hills|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}} and Piyakong Hill{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|12|49|N|124|38|51|E|name=Piyakong Hill|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}. Ilihan Crater is the site of the 1950 eruption.[27][17]
  • Mount Timpoong is the largest mountain in Camiguin. It is composed of several domes, the tallest of which is Timpoong Peak{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|10|42.3|N|124|43|40.4|E|name=Mount Timpoong|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}, also the highest in Camiguin at {{convert|5294|ft|abbr=on}}. The peak of Mambajao{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|9|48|N|124|43|13|E|name=Mount Mambajao|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}} is the second tallest at {{convert|5143|ft|abbr=on}}. A lower central peak{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|10|12.7|N|124|43|27.5|E|name=Central peak|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}} of {{convert|5015|ft|abbr=on}} is located between the two peaks. Some of the flank vents on Mount Timpoong are Campana Hill{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|12|1|N|124|43|2|E|name=Campana Hill|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}} and Minokol Hill{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|9|6.6|N|124|44|39.3|E|name=Minokol Hill|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}.
  • Mount Butay{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|7|18|N|124|45|52|E|name=Mount Butay|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}}, also known as Mount Uhay, is located between the towns of Mahinog and Guinsiliban.
  • Mount Guinsiliban{{nbsp}}{{coord|9|5|35.6|N|124|46|3.5|E|name=Mount Guinsiliban|region:PH_type:mountain|format=hidden}} is located in the town of Guinsiliban. The {{convert|1872|ft|m|adj=mid|-high}} mountain is the southernmost volcano and the first seen coming from the port of Balingoan in mainland Mindanao.

Islands

Located just a few kilometers off the coast are the two islands of Camiguin.

  • White Island can be accessed from Agoho which is about {{convert|5|km|abbr=on}} west of the town of Mambajao.
  • Mantigue Island can be reached from Mahinog about {{convert|14|km}} south of Mambajao.

Springs

  • Ardent Hibok-Hibok Hot Spring — At the foot of Hibok-Hibok Volcano bubble the mineral pools of Ardent Hot Springs. Wisps of steam can be seen rising from the running waters heat by the cauldron of the mountain, the most recently active of the seven volcanoes on the island.
  • Sto. Niño Cold Springs and Bura Natural Soda Water Swimming Pool in Catarman are other popular places to get a relaxing dip on the island.
  • Tangub Hot Spring is an interesting hot spring located on the shore close to the Sunken Cemetery. Most of the spring is submerged and can be partly seen during low tide. The spring can also be examined by scuba diving or snorkeling, as visibility is excellent and it is also a recommended spot for observing underwater life.[18]

Sunken cemetery

During the volcanic birth of Mt. Vulcan lasting from 1871 to about 1875, some areas in the town of Bonbon subsided, sinking the cemetery of the town to below sea level. The place is commemorated by a huge cross erected in 1982.[19]

Since then the municipality of Bonbon has been transferred to the town of Catarman.

Waterfalls

  • Katibawasan Falls — Located {{convert|5|km|abbr=on}} southeast of Mambajao, the Katibawasan Falls cascades {{convert|250|ft|abbr=on}} down to a pool surrounded by orchids and ferns. An invigorating dip on the pool is popular especially on warmer days, and several hiking trails are within the park. This is also the favorite jump-off point for trekkers and mountaineers in search of adventure on the slopes of Mt. Timpoong.
  • Tuasan Falls is located {{convert|6|km|abbr=on}} northeast of Catarman. Unfortunately, accessing the falls no longer entails a scenic hike passing through the Barrio of Mainit, Catarman and along the rocky river bed. The local government, to accommodate local tourism, decided in 2012 to improve access to the falls with a road built all the way up to the falls, finished in late 2014. You can park your car near the waterfalls, and from there it's just a few minutes to reach the falls and the pool. The pool at the base of the waterfall is deep and clear. At the time of this writing (March 2015), the local government is finalizing construction of the "Trans Island Highway", a road crossing Camiguin from Catarman to Mambajao which runs directly to the left of Tuasan Falls.[20]

Protected areas

  • Timpoong and Hibok-Hibok Natural Monument — Located in the central and western portions of Camiguin, the natural monument preserves an important watershed and center of biodiversity in the Mount Hibok-Hibok and Timpoong ranges. As the island's only remaining forest, it supports the vast majority of the island's endemic and endangered flora and fauna such as the Camiguin hanging parrot, Camiguin hawk-owl and Camiguin forest mouse.

Biodiversity

At least five vertebrate species are believed to be endemic to Camiguin:

  • Bullimus gamay, or the Camiguin forest rat
  • Apomys camiguinensis, the Camiguin forest mouse
  • Loriculus camiguinensis, the Camiguin hanging parrot
  • Oreophryne nana, or the Camiguin narrow-mouthed frog
  • Ninox leventisi, or the Camiguin hawk-owl

Transportation

  • Both Cebu Pacific and Philippine Airlines serve daily flights from Mactan Cebu International Airport to Camiguin Airport and vice versa.
  • Visitors may fly to Laguindingan Airport in Cagayan de Oro City in Misamis Oriental province, the gateway to Northern Mindanao. From the airport, a shuttle ride ferries visitors to the Agora Bus Terminal in Cagayan de Oro. Eastbound buses take visitors to the port of Balingoan, Misamis Oriental in about two hours.[21] The ferries to Benoni port take just over an hour (depending on weather conditions) and have more scheduled trips as it takes passengers closer to Mambajao. The time between trips varies during the day and runs from 4:00 am to 5:00 pm.[22]
  • A Super Shuttle Roro transports passengers daily from Camiguin's Port of Balbagon to Bohol's Port of Jagna and vice versa[23].

Natural calamities

Volcanic activity from 1871 to 1875

On February 16, 1871, earthquakes began to be felt on the island, which increase in severity until April 30, when a volcanic fissure opened up 400 yards southwest of the village of Catarman, northwest of Hibok-Hibok Volcano. Mt. Vulcan was born and continued erupting pouring lava into the sea at the same time gaining in height and width. In 1875, the Challenger expedition visited the area and described the mountain as a dome, {{convert|1950|ft|m|abbr=on}} in height, without any crater, but still smoking and incandescent at the top.[5]

The town of Catarman was destroyed and portion of the town sank beneath the sea. The settlement moved to where the town center is presently located and today, all that remains of old Catarman are the ruins of the ancient Spanish church, a convent and a bell tower.

Eruptions from 1948 to 1951

From 1948 to 1951, Mt. Hibok-Hibok was constantly rumbling and smoking. The first minor eruption in 1948 caused little damage and loss of life, but in 1949, the larger eruption caused 79 deaths due to pyroclastic flows. The largest eruption occurred the morning of December 4, 1951. The volcano unleashed lava flows, poisonous gases, and pyroclastic flows destroying nearly 19 squares kilometers of land, particularly in Mambajao. All in all, over 3,000 people were killed. Before the eruption of Mt. Hibok-Hibok in 1951, the population of Camiguin had reach 69,000. After the eruption, the population was reduced to about 34,000 due to massive out-migration.[24]

[25]

Typhoon of 2001

A disastrous typhoon hit the province in the dawn of November 7, 2001. The tropical storm named Lingling (local name Nanang) brought buhawi (torrential downpours) on the mountains causing multiple massive mudslides killing about 200 inhabitants, most were missing.[26]
