Bigaho Falls is a jungle waterfall in Barangay Bigaho, San Vicente, north of Port Barton. A short walk from the entrance leads through a small village to the cascade and its pool. The main pool can draw a crowd, but smaller pools downstream give you a quieter place to swim. The falls are also close to Bigaho Beach, so you can combine a waterfall visit with time on the sand. Paths and basic facilities, including toilets and changing rooms, are available at the site.
