Living in Cebu is probably one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life. The fact that even if I am living in the city, I still have so much access to the mountains, beautiful white sand beaches, and waterfalls. The south part of Cebu is not only abundant with powdery white sand beaches but also blessed with majestic waterfalls. For this blog, I'll be sharing with you my favorite waterfall in the south of Cebu, Cancalanog Falls.
Cancalanog or Cangkalanog Falls (or river) is located in Compostela, Alegria. It's more or less 3 hours away from the city. It is accessible by bus or private cars. If you decide to get the bus, hail or ride the bus going to Barili. You can inform the driver or the dispatcher that you are heading to Cancalanog or tell them to drop you off at Sangi Junction and they will drop you there. You need to ride a motorcycle or commonly known as habal-habal from the main road all the way to the falls. You will have to walk more or less 20 mins. Sometimes, kids will tag along with you to guide. Up to you if you give them something. We gave food to them when we went.
Once you arrived you will sometimes be welcomed by locals doing laundry near the waterfalls. The waterfall is not the typical fall you see with a huge amount of water falling from above but this Cancalanog is very enchanting. It's like a place where fairies and dwarfs would play around. So enchanting and ethereal. I'll let the photos do the talking.
I've been to this waterfall twice already both with friends. The first time I went, I was so amazed by its beauty. The supercold, fresh, and clear water was so appealing. There were also locals swimming and having so much fun jumping off from the cliff to the water. Don't be fooled, the center area is deep. But if you know how to swim, no need to worry. I super enjoyed that experience and it left a mark to my memory..
The second time I went there, I was with my college friends. Cancalanog was just as beautiful as the last time I went there but the water was higher than before. I brought friends there because I felt like they need to see how magnificent Cancalanog is and I don't want to waste their visit to Cebu without seeing it.
Cancalanog Falls is one of the many places I would recommend for anyone who would love to visit Cebu. It's also close to Cambais Falls but I haven't been there yet. It's also close to Moalboal where you can spend some time after enjoying hours in the falls. There are other tourist attractions you can visit. How do you find Cancalanog Falls? Have you been there?

You're the most fortunate person to be surrounded by such paradise. I love such places. Although the little bridge is frightening to me I would gladly walk across hoping not to fall but having a view that would be etched in my mind forever.

Dear @asasiklause, What a beautiful waterfall!
By the way, Could human drink that green color water?
Have you ever urinated in that waterfall?
I kinda want to pee.😁
Thank you. I dont think it's safe to drink the water knowing that some locals do their laundry above.
You are free to pee!
Dear @asasiklause,
What is the current state of the spread of coronavirus in the Philippines? The place where I live is facing a new crisis. The coronavirus vaccine is ineffective, and the number of patients is now exploding.
The current capacity of the hospital has been exceeded. So, untreated patients may riot.
I hope you too stop traveling and take care of your health!
I'm not really updated with the state of corona virus here. The news is stressful and I'm avoiding it. I'd prefer to travel. I'll probably get sick is I stay home.
Here, the number of spreads of the coronavirus is being updated daily. The government is hiding the fact that the coronavirus vaccine is ineffective. New patients are being abandoned because hospitals have already reached their limits.
So, there is a possibility that abandoned patients will riot.
Dear my friend @asasiklause, I hope your choice is correct!
Yay! 🤗
