Tamaraw Falls
A multi-tiered waterfall beside the road, with white curtains of water pouring into natural pools. It is the most popular inland attraction in Puerto Galera.
Tamaraw Falls lies beside the road from Puerto Galera to Calapan, about 14 kilometers from the town center. The waterfall cascades in tiers down a cliff face, and there is a swimming pool and natural pools beneath the falls where you can cool off. You can see the full view from the road bridge. Admission is very cheap, around a few dozen pesos. You can hire a tricycle or motorbike to get there, and it is often combined with a visit to the Iraya Mangyan village and White Beach on the same day. Water levels drop toward the end of the dry season.
