BULUSUKAN FALLS: Marinduque Adventure Series



Bulusukan Falls flows from the remaining forests of Bagtingon, in Buenavista, Marinduque, Philippines. The place has been identified through a study conducted by Prof. Panchito Labay of MSC as the biggest natural habitat of butterflies in this island-province. With more than 300 endemic butterfly species found in this area alone - apparently attracted by the high volume of negative ions in said place - the butterfly industry here have found a few followers.

Other endemic species of animals found here are monkeys, wild cats, deer and boas. Unique tropical flora also abound. The Falls remain a popular picnic place for young people from Buenavista, Gasan and nearby towns.
