Tamaraw Falls.

Tamaraw Falls is one of Oriental Mindoro’s most accessible natural landmarks, requiring no strenuous trekking to reach. Located directly along the Western Nautical Highway in San Teodoro, this striking 423-foot waterfall features a distinct twin-tiered, Y-shaped drop where two streams merge down a sheer, mossy cliffside. Named after the island’s rare, endemic dwarf buffalo, the falls serve as both a scenic pitstop and a local symbol of Mindoro's wildlife. While travelers can admire the view for free right from the roadside bridge, those looking to linger can pay a small entry fee to access the man-made swimming pools, picnic cottages, and shower facilities at the base. It is an ideal, hassle-free stopover for anyone traveling between Calapan and Puerto Galera.
