CARAMOAN │ Lahos Island

Approaching Lahos Island.

After Matukad Island visit, we went to another Island named Lajos or Lahos which means "overflow" because the sea can wash over a part of this narrow island from one side to the other. Vewing from a far, you'll see a beautiful Island, it's like two separated rocks situated on a flat white sand paper and can be appreciated only during low tide.

This Island also has beautiful rock formations like in Matukad's, but in comparison with the sand consistency and color, Lajos has less finer and kinda yellowish one

Out boat docked at Lajos Island.

This Island is unique for it's appearance because of two prominent rocks act like two towers and passing through the middle will take you to the other side of the Island.

Bluish waters viewed from the beach front.

This is the one side of the Island's beach front where we docked our boat. Kuya Joseph, our tour guide said that this is Island is owned by Bichara family and they let able people to rent it like the survivor show. Sometimes, people just camp there for their accomodation and just hire tour guides for the Island hoping and other possible activities in Caramoan.

Rock forms from Island's left side.

I love this rock formation, Isn't that beautiful? For me it's like a huge coral reef. :) These rocks are not as high as those in Matukad but there are more bushes here.

Other rock forms at the beach front.

Looking up on the sky.

Two sides of the Island.

Here's the two sides of the Island separated by a space of white sand. During High tide, this part of the is unseen, where the term Lajos or "Laho" (gone), Island's name came from.

This visit was fun coz I met tiny creatures under the rocks/sands, and that was interesting. By the way we're planning to have camping here next time, to add excitement on our vacation/adventure and to reduce expenses as well! We could arrange that kind of setting sith our tour guide next time. haha.
