The municipality of Tibiao in Antique holds the first Tibiao River Festival, which coincides with the first National Extreme River Tubing Race. River tubing is a recreational activity where individuals ride on an inner tube to navigate a river.
Tibiao water festival director Flord Calawag told reporters they only discovered the potential of the Tibiao River when Australian organizers of a previous kayaking event made them aware of it. Tibiao is classified as grade 4 river in terms of adventure, which means it is ideal for white water and related extreme sports.
