Tinago Falls

Eastern Visayas


Situated off the cross-country road, Tinago is the most accessible of Biliran's many waterfalls, with a paved access road and concrete bleachers that spoil the atmosphere only somewhat. If the water's not flowing too fast, there are two big swimming holes at the base of the falls.
