Natural hot springs abound in the country, as there are still active volcanos scattered throughout the archipelago. Most of these springs have been known and enjoyed by people for their relaxing, and some say, therapeutic, qualities. One of the better known of these is the Malbog Sulfur Spring, a particularly potent spring with healing water.
The Malbog Sulfur Spring can be found at the base of Mt. Malindig volcano. Two swimming pools with warm though slightly sulfuric waters are considered to be healing with medicinal properties. Malbog Sulfuric Springs, whose water is believed to cure skin diseases like acne, has a particularly relaxing effect. The spring is a good reason to visit the old town of Buenavista.
