Sibagat River

The Sibagat River (Ilog Sibagat; Suba sa Sibagat) is a stream located in Sibagat, Agusan del Sur, Caraga Region, Philippines. It is a tributary of the larger Wawa River with headwaters located in the northeastern mountain boundaries of Sibagat and Butuan.

Etymology
The Sibagat River is named after its town's name Sibagat that comes from the word bagat which means meet or meeting place. According to oral history, the Sibagat River is the place where warring tribes met and fought. The losing tribe would retreat downstream to the Wawa River and disappear.

Geography
The Sibagat River headwaters originate from the hinterlands of Barangay Pianing in Butuan and traverses along the riverbank barangay of Bugsukan, also in Butuan, and the barangays of Tabontabon, Afga, El Rio, Mahayahay and Poblacion in Sibagat where its mouth located in Sitio Sabang met with the larger Wawa River.
