Malumpati Cold Spring
About
That electric-blue water is real, and it's cold! Malumpati Cold Spring in Pandan, Antique is a forest-shaded natural pool, about 40 metres long and 3 to 4 metres deep in the middle, that flows out into the Bugang River. Float on a tube, jump in, or just sit by the water under the big trees. It's run as a resort with cottages along the bank, and it's an easy detour of a little over an hour if you're coming from Boracay.
Dry until sunset (5:37 PM). Good time to go!
