Camiguin de Babuyanes

About

Camiguin de Babuyanes or Mount Camiguin, is an active stratovolcano on Camiguin Island which is part of the Babuyan Islands group that is located in Luzon Strait in the Philippines, north of the island of Luzon located in the municipality of Calayan in the province of Cagayan. The island has a population of 5,231 people in 2020. There has been only one single eruption by the volcano prior to 1857. Camiguin de Babuyanes is sometimes called Camiguin Norte ("North Camiguin") to distinguish it from Camiguin Island of Mindanao, which in turn is sometimes called Camiguin Sur ("South Camiguin") or Camiguin de Mindanao. Both are volcanic islands.
