Lake Pandin is a tourist spot in Laguna. The lake was particularly located in the area of San Pablo. Among the 7 lakes of Laguna, Lake Pandin and its twin Lake Yambo are the only lakes accessible to tourists.
The remaining 5 lakes are:
Bunot Lake (the source of aquatic foods),
Mohicap Lake (the source of tilapia),
Sampaloc Lake (the largest lake),
Calibato Lake (the deepest lake),
Palaklapakin Lake (the shallowest lake).
The seven lakes are all crater lakes.
Lake Pandin is calm and clean. You can only see some small movement of the waters when there are big winds but for good weather the lake is silent and amazing. The lake has a depth of 180 feet. That is somewhat closer to 3 long streetlight posts joint together. The lake is unspoiled and good for swimming.
The management of the lake offers 3 hours tour to the lake. A life vest is provided. A tour includes riding a raft and a lunch. The raft (which has a roof) is maneuvered by 2 women to the center of the lake.
The staffs of Lake Pandin are mostly the local citizens. The women helps all the preparations and accommodations of the tourists in the lake including the steering of the raft. The men helps also but most of them catch fishes to be cooked and served to tourist and visitors.
The most common lunch in the menu includes grilled tilapia and shrimps.
The tour costs Php 360.oo per person or Php 180.oo but without lunch.

Swimming. Even you are not a good swimmer and afraid of the depth of the lake, a life vest can somehow make you float in the water.
