ake Sebu is also the name of a natural lake in the municipality (6°12.927′N, 124°42.090′E) within the Allah Valley region. The Philippine government has recognized it as one of the country's most important watersheds. Lake Sebu is one of the many bodies of water supplying important irrigation to the provinces of Sultan Kudarat and South Cotabato. The villages around the lake have been turned into an independent municipality called Lake Sebu after being a former village of Surallah.
Lake Sebu being the primary tourist destination of the province boasts with wonderful nature and abundant wildlife. While Tboli on the other hand teems with life with its vast forests, rich agricultural land and even richer (literally) gold mines.
Named as the Summer Capital of South Cotabato, Lake Sebu is home to the T'boli tribe. Sadly however, with the denudatation of the surrounding forests much of the beauty that Lake Sebu was 15 or so years ago when I first visited the place has vanished. Still there is something to offer for someone adventurous enough to venture into its remote areas. Situated almost 3000 feet above sea level, the climate is cool and the air is still fresh. Occassionally, one can still see T'boli women wearing their traditional attire. The traditional weaving of the t'nalak (fabric made of abaca fiber)is still around. But what makes people still go and visit Lake Sebu is the flavor of the fresh tilapia, caught from the lake to the grill, the taste is almost heavenly.
Dongon Waterfall
the second in the series of seven falls and is actually a plunge type of waterfall. It's majestic height of more than 100 feet makes it magnificent even at distant viewing!
