It is overlain with a pebbled shore and surrounded by interesting rock formations. Cliffs in MalumpatanA 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. A rock formation shaped like a slide with Botlog Island in the distanceOn 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). Rock formations pointing to Malangabang IslandMalumpatan is specifically located on the east central part of the Pan de Azucar, in Barangay Tambaliza.Don’t leave yet.

Two ways I look at that, to figure-out an architectural structures blending the sweeping sea landscape of islands in distance of Botlog; and factor the stiff cliff sides where the inlaid peebled shoreline summoned the eyes, then pull up the golden streaks of nature chiseled rocks to mold the nearest design that can compliment the awesome beauty of your Malumpatan at the island of Pan Azucar.Your pictures speak volumes. If I being there the measure of scale shall mute the volumes.Reply Regie saysMarch 27, 2012 at 7:36 pmArn_arb is correct. It’s “Lumpatan”. The name was derived from the local dialect “lumpat” which means “to jump”.Reply arn_arb saysMarch 20, 2011 at 3:24 amerr again…it’s Lumpatan and not Malumpatan. malamang hindi taga roon ang napagtanungan mo sir. anyway, thanks for blogging our Lumpatan.Reply freda saysOctober 10, 2010 at 10:49 amall i can say about pan de azucar its beautiful and peaceful place…..Reply Marie Dionie Palaleo saysOctober 19, 2009 at 9:40 pmHey 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!Reply James saysJuly 25, 2009 at 1:41 amMany 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.Reply Regie saysJuly 13, 2007 at 7:14 pmI live in Pan de Azucar and I’m proud to see some photo of the island here in your website.Reply JOY saysMay 11, 2007 at 3:26 amHi,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! :)Reply
