Welcome to Caniogan Community

Sitio Pulo is an island near Sitio Caniogan of Brgy. CCL (Caniogan-Calero-Lanang) and home to 53 families. The area is a round village usually called as a lollipop community. During rainy season, the water rises and Sitio Pulo can also be accessed by boat but during dry season, locals could walk by land. The community is a grassland and most of the locals are farmers and fishers. Due to climate change, the area is highly disaster risk and the locals are usually evacuated every time there is a typhoon.
