Mag-Aso Falls
A two-tiered waterfall in Antequera town, with a cool pool for swimming. Its name means “smoking” for the mist that rises from the water.
The waterfall is about 8 metres high and falls in two tiers into a green pool, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. In the local language, “Mag-Aso” means “smoking,” describing the mist that rises from the water in the early morning. Walk down about a hundred steps to the pool, where you can swim or take a bamboo raft. Entry costs a few dozen pesos. The falls are in Antequera town, about 20 km from Tagbilaran, and can be visited together with the Antequera basket-weaving market held on Sundays.
