In Cortes, Laswitan is the most recognized tourist attraction. It’s the one thing in Cortes people from along the coastal area of Surigao del Sur, say I should visit. Interestingly though, many of them haven’t been to Cortes yet.
After securing my stay in Cortes, through the courtesy of LGU officer Vincent Duenas, I was taken on a habal-habal ride to Laswitan by Archie, an LGU staff. From Cortes town proper, it was still a good 6 kms of dirt riding away. When the road ends, there is a 5 minute hike down to sea level where you see the majestic Pacific Ocean and Laswitan, fronting it.
The falls is created by huge splash of strong waves towering over 20-feet rock barriers, hence, it is called ocean waterfalls. the catch basin of the falls are lagoons safe for swimming.
