Get DirectionsFeel the soft sand and soak up the sun at this stunning 795-meter sandbar in Palompon, Leyte. Kalanggaman Island is a destination with nothing to distract from its natural beauty, allowing visitors to immerse in nature completely. The island got its name from ‘langgam,’ which means bird in Bisaya. When viewed from above, the two ends of the island seem like the flapping of a bird’s wings when the tides change.AddressPalompon, LeyteContact DetailsMobile: +63 912 571 4961Email: [email protected]Operational HoursAlways open (travel time is from 7:00 am – 4:00 pm)Best time to visitYear-roundHow to get thereFrom Tacloban, ride a jeepney or rent a car to the van terminal.
