This little known town is blessed with a hidden treasure --a stunning blue lagoon nestled within a mountainside and protectively covered by a forest. Its dark tinge comes from the Pacific sea pouring in from a deep underwater crevice. To local folks, it is said to be enchanted. Full of rich marine fishes swimming in the deep blue, no one is said to have ever caught one. Once you take a dip in the cool, clear waters, you don't want to come out.
Hinatuan can be reached by land from Davao in an estimated 7 hours, or via Bislig City in less than 2 hours. Buses ply the routes too.
Hinatuan, Surigao del Sur is a remote municipality most known for its delicious crabs and a stunning design by Mother Nature right in the heart of Barangay Talisay — an incredibly blue basin nestled within a mountainside and protectively covered by the woods. Its startlingly azure tinge comes from the Pacific sea pouring in from its cavernous underwater crevice, mixing salty tang with the moss-colored Hinatuan river. To local folks, it is known to be enchanted. Marine fishes of all sizes swim in this surreal blue hole. Fascinating and at the same time terrifying, once you take a dip in its cool waters, you are reluctant to come out.
