Baler, Aurora (Itinerary)


 




Baler, Aurora
One of the countless mini falls before reaching Ditumabo Falls
also known as the Mother Falls


The beautiful Baler, located in the fourth municipality in the province of Aurora, is one of the attractions in Luzon. The place is popularly known for its waves attracting many surfers and those who practically want to try surfing.



After two cancelled trips to this place, I was definitely thrilled when the third one was realised.  Falls, waves for surfing, 5-century-old balete tree, beaches, the food and a place rich with history --- who would not crave for Baler?

Looks like you have a beautiful trip planned! I do like waterfalls even if they aren't the high drop ones.
