The southern portion of Laguna is a rough agglomeration of six towns and one city sandwiched between the southern shores of Laguna de Bay and the Southern Luzon Volcanic Field, a chain of inactive volcanoes running along the boundary with Batangas and Quezon provinces. Its position in the middle part of the province allows visitors to see the boundary between the urban comforts of the encroaching agglomeration from Metro Manila from the west and the rustic attractions of the towns in its eastern side.
Southern Laguna is connected to the rest of the country by two parallel road arteries corresponding to its highland and lakeshore clusters.
