Tinambac

The town of Tinambac was considered to be a trading center of villages surrounding the eastern side of Mt. Isarog. It was in this place where tobacco, then a prohibited product, was exchanged by the townspeople of Tinambac.

Its establishment as a separate municipality occurred during the latter part of the 18th century and this was known as the mission post of Himoragat. In 1829 when the Spanish administration divided the province of Camarines Sur into four districts, Tinambac fell under the District of Isarog.

In the 2024 census, the population of Tinambac was 69,860 people,^[12] with a density of 200 inhabitants per square kilometre or 520 inhabitants per square mile.

Bikol is the predominant language.
