Canimog Island and Lighthouse

Canimog Island and Lighthouse is a Registered Property, Province of Camarines Norte located at Mercedes, Camarines Norte, Region V.

The crocodile-like island you’ll see in Bagasbas Beach is actually Canimog Island. Also called Bundok Buwaya and/or Crocodile Island by the locals, the largest of the seven islands houses the Canimog Island Lighthouse, a minor lighthouse erected in 1927. The sole resident of the island is the lighthouse keeper and his dogs.
Aside from the lighthouse, the island have the following features: trekking terrain, a small islet viewable from the lighthouse, a boulder beach and a cream-white sand/pebble beach. The fruit-bearing bats that once inhabit the pine trees of Canimog have transferred to Apuao Pequeña Island. From the lighthouse, the Calaguas Islands can be seen very faintly.
The estimate terrain elevation above seal level is 11 metres.
