For years, Suhot which means "to go under" is a haven to visitors from neighboring municipalities and provinces because of the spring near the cave's entrance whose water is very cold and clear and because of its primitive scenic surroundings.
Its free flowing water is rich in sulfur that originates from Panginra-on Mountain and passing through a subterranean stream, flow out of a bowl-like aperture.

History of Dumalag.
.
Dumalag was founded by the Augustinian as early as 1590 as a Christian Community.
It was first administered for some time by the Augustinian until the year 1597 when it was handed over by the bishop of Cebu.
However, due to the effort of Father Alonzo de Baraona while serving as minister of Sarog (Jaro) in 1611 and of Aklan in 1613, the town was given back to the Augustinians and by official proclamation on May 17, 1614 in Manila, Dumalag became an Augustinian Convent.
In the later part of the year the General in Rome granted the parish the rank of vicariate, meaning that it could already be totally Christian.
Under that category the vicar of Dumalag, administered the towns of Mambusao, Malinao, Tapaz, Maasin, Maranglet, and Agupanga.
Its total population was estimated around four thousand.
From the time it was founded as a town and parish until the outbreak of the Visayas Revolution against Spain, the parish of Dumalag was constantly administered by the Augustinian missionaries.
Before the founding of the Diocese of Capiz, it was administered by the Diocese of Jaro (Iloilo).
Place under the patronage of St.
Martin of Tours, the parish is considered one of the most active parish in propagation of the Holy Faith..

How Dumalag Got Its Name?.
.
There were actually several versions regarding the origin of the name of the town, but the most authentic was the incident arising from the misunderstanding between a native fisherman and a Spanish Conquistador whose duty was to inquire about the name of every place he was able to reach..
On the Northern part of the present site of the Poblacion, there was a creek (now called Agtabas) where thick trees grew along its banks.
It was a rich fishing ground for freshwater fish.
During summer, the dead leaves of the trees that fell on the water made the water yellow ("dalag" in dialect).
One morning, while a fisherman was fishing, his wife arrived to pry.
Her husband had caught only few.
She asked why, and the husband reasoned out that he could not very well locate the hiding place of the fish because the water had turned yellow ("dumalag" in dialect).
Just then the Spanish Conquistador arrived at the place, and thinking of his mission, asked for the name of the place in Spanish: "Como se llama este sitio?" The fisherman believing that the stranger asked the same question that his wife had earlier asked answered "Dumalag".
And so, the conquistador named this town "Dumalag" and this name was later given official recognition by the government..
