White Sand Bliss & Local Warmth at Calicoan Island 🏖️🌊✨
Eastern Samar’s Calicoan Island is the place to chase sunrises, wiggle your toes in powdery white sand, and soak in the local hospitality that turns every traveler into a friend. Whether you’re here for the epic beach-hopping or simply to marvel at sea-blue panoramas, the vibes are always laid-back and lively.
Kick off your adventure with a sunrise stroll along the coastline—those glass-clear waters and big sky vistas are insta-worthy from every angle. For your must-do list: swim, snorkel in tranquil bays, and don’t skip the unique tidal pools or dramatic rock formations (the photo spot of a man under a beachside boulder is a true highlight—try framing the shot with the endless sea and sunrise glow for an unforgettable snap). Exploring the rivers and coastal lagoon areas at sunrise or sunset brings out vibrant colors and a peaceful atmosphere, perfect for relaxed reflection or a fresh selfie.
Tip: While Calicoan Island is open all day, early mornings or late afternoons deliver the best light and coolest temps. Locals are super friendly—strike up a conversation and you’ll likely snag tips for hidden spots. Bring water shoes for rocky outcrops and reef areas, and keep sunscreen handy. Keep an eye out for strong currents along some stretches; always ask locals about safe swim zones.

LAID-BACK PARADISE: CALICOAN ISLAND
Tucked away in the Pacific side of Eastern Samar, Calicoan Island is a raw and unspoiled gem that many travelers have yet to discover. Known for its pristine beaches, powerful surf waves, and mysterious lagoons, it offers an adventure that blends both relaxation and adrenaline. My trip to this island was a mix of stunning coastal scenery, exciting surfing sessions, and quiet moments by the sea—definitely a place worth exploring.
The moment I arrived, I was greeted by long stretches of white sand beaches, coconut trees swaying in the wind, and the sound of waves crashing against the shore. It felt like I had stepped into a hidden paradise untouched by mass tourism.
Calicoan Island is a paradise for surfers, nature lovers, and travelers looking for a peaceful retreat. Whether you’re riding the waves, exploring hidden lagoons, or simply enjoying the unspoiled beauty of the island, it’s a destination that deserves more attention. If you’re planning a trip to Eastern Samar, don’t miss out on this hidden gem!

HIDDEN GEM: CALICOAN ISLAND
Traveling solo has always been about self-discovery, and my trip to Calicoan Island, Eastern Samar was no different. Known for its pristine beaches, powerful Pacific waves, and hidden lagoons, this off-the-beaten-path destination gave me the perfect mix of adventure and solitude.
I had no strict itinerary—just a backpack, a sense of curiosity, and a desire to experience Calicoan at my own pace.
Calicoan Island was more than just a beach getaway—it was a reminder that solo travel is one of the most rewarding experiences. Whether you’re riding the waves, exploring hidden caves, or just enjoying the quiet beauty of nature, this island is a perfect escape for those seeking adventure and solitude.

Calicoan Island Guiuan Eastern Samar
This is my favorite Island that I discovered last 2015 and this is the reason why I am always traveling back here in Guiuan. Aside from fresh vegetables and seafood, I love the white sand beaches here. This is what we call, Senior spots. This is the group of seniors who maintained the beauty and cleanliness of the area. every year, I traveled here to relieve all my stress and to have some peaceful mind. The fresh air, kind people and green environment feel that I can have a long life. Thankyou. #trip
