The island-province of Camiguin is a pear-shaped
volcanic island in the northern tip of Mindanao. It is
approximately 90 kilometers north of the City of Cagayan de Oro.
It is bounded to the north by Bohol Sea, to the west by
Macajalar Bay, to the southeast by Gingoog Bay and to the east
by Butuan Bay.The Camiguin culture is a mixture of both Boholano
and Cebuano culture. It is very colorful and creative. The
people are deeply religious, hospitable and friendly. Cebuano is
the major dialect in the Province. However, in the towns of
Sagay and Guinsiliban, where most of the indigenous tribes
reside, the Kinamiguin dialect is still spoken. Kinamiguin is
derived from the Manobo dialect with some mixture of Boholano. |
