Scenic Higatangan Island
Higatangan Island off the northwestern tip of Leyte, which is part of Naval, could give
the popular Boracay Island off Aklan Province a run for its money. Here are some
representative scenes of the island:
The sand bar on the southeastern tip of Higatangan Island. Depending on the
strength of the sea current, this sand bar would arch north or south during certain periods
of the year. (Photo courtesy of
