Mainit Lake Hot Springs is a geothermal bathing destination in Surigao del Norte province on the island of Mindanao in the Philippines, located along the shores of Lake Mainit — the fourth largest lake in the country and one of the deepest in Southeast Asia. The geothermal waters emerge from the volcanic geology of the region at elevated temperatures, pooling along the lake's edge in a setting of exceptional tropical beauty where rainforest hills descend directly to the water. Lake Mainit itself is a remarkable ecosystem of biodiversity, and the hot springs along its shores offer a uniquely atmospheric bathing experience combining geothermal energy with the vast, tranquil expanse of the lake. Mainit Lake Hot Springs is a raw and magnificent natural thermal destination in one of Mindanao's most ecologically rich and scenically dramatic regions.

Insider tip — Hydrate well before and after your bath in the 41°C thermal water.
