Pagsanjan Falls is one of the most famous waterfalls in the Philippines. The waterfall is actually known as Magdapio Falls, but popularly take the name Pagsanjan, which is the town in the province of Laguna where it is located. Pagsanjan Falls is at the confluence of two rivers, the Balanac and Bumbungan, just outside Pagsanjan. It has a drop of 120 m (393 ft).

A trip to the Pagsanjan Falls usually involves a boat trip through the gorge. The boats are called banca, and the boatmen, bangkeros. A change of clothes is necessary as a ride to the falls without actually enjoying its torrents is not regarded as complete.
