Sta. Praxedes is the first town of Cagayan from the Province of Ilocos Norte. In this town, you will find one of the tallest waterfalls in Cagayan. Portabaga Falls is 41 feet in height and is not that far from the national highway. Actually, you don’t need to trek just to get to this place. I must say that the local government unit of Sta. Praxedes out did themselves for what they did with the place. Portabaga Falls is now a park and a resort. There are cottages, rooms, and even function halls that can be rented.  Read more: https://patriziadacanay.wordpress.com/2015/05/10/portabaga-falls-sta-praxedes-cagayan-2/

Cagayan Province is surprisingly full of hidden natural wonders that are just awaiting discovery, and one of these includes the majestic grandeur of Portabaga Falls.  The falls can be found in the town of Sta. Praxedes, which is one of the few parts of Cagayan Province where the climate is marked by distinct seasons: wet from May to October but dry for the rest of the year. A hilly coastal area 194 km from the provincial capital of Tuguegarao and bordering Ilocos Norte, it is noted for hot springs as well as its waterfalls. Portabaga Falls is one of two well-known falls in the town, with the other one being Macatel Falls.The waterfall has three drop-off points. At the bottom of the falls is a huge catch basin that is suited for swimming. Read More:  https://www.vigattintourism.com/tourism/articles/Portabaga-Falls
