The Giant Clams Nursery of Cantaan (Camiguin)
Nestled in a cove near Cantaan is a beautiful beach with white sand, the Kabila White Beach. This beach facing Mindanao is already a surprise. But actually the real surprise is the Giant Clam Nursery.
It is a pleasure to observe the Giant Clams. They react on your movements and close their shells with astonishing speed. When you approach more carefully, or wait a few seconds while the clam opens again, you can observe the breathing and other movements.
For swimmers:
In addition to above dry visits you may go snorkeling around the nursery. You will first get some instructions, especially what you must not do. It is an unforgettable sight of this silent giants. From time to time the one or the other clam closes their shells with a super fast clap.
