Aside from beautiful sandy beaches, Southern Cebu is a haven for some of the country’s most magnificent and pristine waterfalls, each with its own unique characteristic and grandeur. Many of these natural wonders are left in their pristine state even if they have become quite popular among Cebuanos. The mighty Inambakan Falls in the municipality in Ginatilan is one of these must-visit natural treasures. The waterfall is our jump-off point and our first destination in this early-year adventure.
The majestic 100-foot Inambakan Falls is an example of a powerful plunge waterfall in which the water loses contact with the rock wall as it falls down the pool. In fact, the fall is so strong that it creates an everlasting mist around the area. We actually felt the mist tens of yards away from the edge of the waterfall’s pool. That’s how powerful it is. Standing directly across Inambakan Falls will get you definitely soaked in minutes. Read More: https://adrenalineromance.com/2015/03/13/inambakan-falls-natural-grandeur-in-ginatilan-south-cebu/

It took us around a quarter of an hour to reach our jump-off point from the town proper. We disembarked from our habal-habals, paid the entrance fee, and proceeded down the cemented steps which led most of the way to our first destination.
The water is so clean and clear that you can spot individual stones at the bottom. Just be careful as you trek here as the trail is quite wet and slippery. Flowing water from the source cascades down and around large boulders on their way to the sea. The rushing water is definitely a sight—and sound—to behold. Mother Nature never fails to mesmerize us.
As we walked down the trail, which seemed to get wetter and muddier, the sound of water crashing down a pool became louder and more prominent. Then rounding a bend, we had our first glimpse of our awesome destination, the mighty Inambakan Falls.

The Inambakan Falls is just one of the waterfalls situated in the hometown of St. Pedro Calungsod. It is considered as one of the hidden treasures of the town. But the place does have some cottages where you can leave your bags while taking a dip at the pool under the falls.
The waterfalls itself is around a hundred feet high and the catch basin has a depth of around eight feet. The Inambakan Falls is one of a few waterfalls in the island where the water loses contact of the rock wall near the point where it touches the basin. There is a small cave underneath the falls as well as large rock just behind the falls.
For visitors who are not quite adept in swimming, it is advisable to stay a safe distance away from the falls. You should also wear a life vest if you decide to swim close to the falls. Just keep in mind that the force of the waterfall is quite strong. Read More: http://www.peanutbrowas.com/blog/take-the-plunge-at-the-inambakan-falls
