Byaheng Surigao: Tinuy-an Falls

The last stop of our Byaheng Surigao adventure. An hour away from Enchanted River by van, with an entrance fee of P50. Known to be the Niagara falls of the Philippines for it looks like the famous Niagara Falls in Canada. The falls was stunning itself. But if you want to enjoy the falls, be adventurous like us. We rode a "balsa" (bamboo water raft) to the center of the falls where the water fell and it was like we were in the middle of a typhoon! The experience was so crazy! We were balancing our weights in the "balsa" for we might be outbalanced and the water is so deep and not all of us were wearing life vest! I can't merely open my eyes because of the impact of the water from the falls that falling unto us and its so cold! Extra cold for me because I was feeling feverish at that time. But the fun must go on in spite of me not feeling well and it was just crazy fun! We were all having fun.

For the safety of our slippers!

After the "balsa" experience, the guide asked us if we want to go to the upper section of the falls but we have to pay him an extra hundred bucks, the group agreed. Though we found out later that it was not necessary to have a tour guide with us, you can easily find your way up to the higher part of the falls, but having a guide gave us an official photographer and that can't be bad for a hundred bucks right? According to our tour guide, you can rent a waterproof camera for P200.

To sum it up, the whole experience was totally crazy in a fun way.
