Lake Cometa is a scenic low-elevation lake nestled within the agri-eco tourism park area of Kapatagan,Digos City, on the fertile volcanic plateau of Mount Apo’s lower flanks. It is believed to have formed as a depression lake, where irregularities in the volcanic terrain capture surface runoff and spring water. Surrounded by rich agricultural lands and eco-tourism facilities, the lake provides a natural attraction.

Geologically, Lake Cometa reflects the dynamic processes of volcanism and erosion that shaped the Apo plateau. Its basin collects water, sustaining a calm body of water that supports local biodiversity. The lake’s tranquil setting, framed by views of Mount Apo, makes it a centerpiece for eco-tourism in Kapatagan, offering visitors a glimpse of how volcanic landscapes evolve into fertile, life-sustaining environments.
