Visit Kalanggaman Island

You sort of get the exclusivity when you visit Kalanggaman Island because only 500 tourists are
allowed each visit. They follow these rules to maintain the beauty of the island. The island has
fine sands and although not exactly as fine as Boracay, it’s close and it’s a new paradise.
Visit Historical Sites
Leyte’s history is driven by the fact that it’s where General Douglas MacArthur landed when he
was trying to free the Philippines from the Japanese Imperial Army. You can visit the MacArthur
landing Memorial where larger-than-life statues of MacArthur and his force can be found.
