Botbot is a barangay in the municipality of Pandan in the province of Antique, Philippines. It is a coastal barangay with rich fishing grounds, fertile plains and mountain ranges that meets the sea. The barangay has been visited by marine explorers from abroad in 2011 and have taped the marine life in Tigpupuro Reef/Botbot Reef.

The barangay center sits along the lands formerly owned by the Dionela-Agbas and Buaya-Carpio Families in 1930 before it was constructed with a Plaza, School and Barangay Hall.
