Tumarbong Falls in Barangay Tumarbong is one of the largest waterfalls in Palawan and a home to a variety of birds and diverse flora.

Trudging through the Falls!

Getting to the Tumarbong Falls will take a 30-minute land travel from the town proper and a 25-minute trek or a 30-minute banca ride passing through a forest trail that follows a river. The hike is all worth it as you embrace the falls. Above the falls is a natural basin ideal for swimming which is a refreshing dip after a long trek. The place is indeed the best destination to commune with the beauty of nature.
