Surrounded by limestone and granite sculptures facing the Pacific Ocean, its pockmarked limestone floor reveals pools of assorted shapes and sizes resembling basins, barrels, tubs and ponds during low tide. - Amazing Siargao Website
Located in Pilar, Siargao, about one hour or more by car, Magpupungko is truly a natural beauty that's worth seeing. That super long jittery ride along the uncemented road from General Luna becomes certainly worth it once the rock formations and the tidal pools loom into view.
Magpupungko from the root word "pungko" which in Bisaya means "sit", is named so, as a huge rock has been sitting on a smaller one since it was discovered. I wonder, when will it ever fall?
