Tinago Falls @ Biliran

The province of Biliran is an island paradise waiting to be explored. It used to be a sub-province of Leyte until 1992 when it became a full-fledged province. Known in the Eastern Visayas region as a province of so many Waterfalls, I wasted no time in checking out the place when the opportunity arise.

To start this Biliran Series, let me show you the majestic Tinago Falls located in Caibiran, Biliran. Tinago literally means hidden but this falls ain't really hidden 'coz it is very accessible and barely a few minutes walk from where our van was parked. In fact, the place is so developed with cemented stair trails making it the most visited Falls of Biliran Province. Here are some shots I have taken of that awe-inspiring waterfalls:

Biliran's Most Visited Falls


The Main Falls and the Cascading Mini Falls


Swimmable Pool


Picture-Perfect Boulders

A Sight To Behold


Into the Open River


Instructions on how to go to Biliran, their available accommodations and contact persons in my next posts about the province. For now. let me just thank Sherwin of the Provincial Tourism Office who accompanied us to this Falls.

Very beautiful photos of the waterfall. The water must be very cold right. My mom visited Pagsanjan Waterfall in philippines. I have to find the photo, it looked like the one in your blog. Have you been to there? My mom was so brave to take the raft and go under the waterfall...lol. Dad dont even dare go on the raft.

What is the purpose of the man-made structure shown in your first photo? An observation miniplatform or something? It mars the natural beauty of the falls.
