Malumpatan is a small beach found in the coast of Pan de Azucar Island. It is overlain with a pebbled shore and surrounded by interesting rock formations.
Cliffs in Malumpatan
A cove-like cliff serves as an interesting backdrop for Malumpatan. A kind of bird use the holes on this rock wall as their home. You can see them flying in and out of them when you get up-close.

On the south side of the island are more of the area’s interesting rock formations overlooking Agho, Bag-o Sipol, and Malangabang Island. I guess the reason why they called this place Malumpatan, which means “a place where it’s safe to jump”, is because people can jump over one of these cliffs and land on the deep waters below (I’m not sure though so don’t blame me if your friends take you to the … Sara District Hospital, I hope that’s enough to get you thinking twice about carelessly doing it).

Malumpatan is specifically located on the east central part of the Pan de Azucar, in Barangay Tambaliza.

Hi,
Pan de Azucar Beach could be the next Boracay Island in the near future, I can see it right now. I wish for Villa Beach too. It would be very nice if Villa Beach will trasform like Boracay Resorts ASAP. Villa Beach will be the main attraction because it is very close to the city, and only 20 kilometers away from the airport, no big deal. Cheers! :)
I live in Pan de Azucar and I’m proud to see some photo of the island here in your website.
Many beautiful places to go in Iloilo. Why don’t many tourists know about this? Kahit man lamang mga Filipinos? I think this has to be promoted. . . Many beautiful places compared to other islands in the Visayas.
Hey there!
I’ll be in Iloilo on December for business and travel.
It’s my first Visayas destination. I’m coming all the way from the City of Pines up north, Baguio City.
I’d appreciate if you could suggest a resort that won’t cost me that much but is worth it. I’m not into partyin, I’m looking for a place that is a little bit isolated where I could relax and get a tan peacefully!
Thanks!
