Top Things to do in the Philippines this Rainy Season
8. STAYCATION
Sometimes, rains last for several days that outdoor activities are impossible to do. Why not enjoy a "staycation" at a nearby hotel or resort? This is a great way to have a quiet hideaway to rest your mind and body while enjoying the cold weather, the food and of course, the facilities of the hotel or resort.

The best time to visit waterfalls is during the rainy season when the water is in full blast. But be careful in choosing which waterfalls to visit. I highly suggest that you visit those that are easily accessible and doesn't require you to hike or trek on deep ravines. Also, always be cautious when visiting a waterfall during heavy rains as it may result to flash floods.
Here are some of the most accessible waterfalls that I've been to:
- Ma. Christina Falls in Iligan City
- Mimbalut Falls in Iligan City
- Tinago Falls in Biliran
- 7 Waterfalls in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato
- Tinuy-an Falls in Bislig Surigao del Sur
- Kawa-kawa Falls in Sta. Cruz Marinduque
- Jawili Falls in Tangalan Aklan
- Maribina Falls in Bato Catanduanes
- Katibawasan Falls in Camiguin
- Hagimit Falls in Samal Island Davao del Norte
