Local lore on how Baler got its name is rich with several stories. But the most accepted theory is that Baler comes from the word balod or balud. It was recorded and defined in Vocabulario de Lengua Tagala, a Tagalog-Spanish dictionary published in 1754 by Juan dela Noceda and Pedro de San Lucar. According to it, the name Baler originated from the word balod, which referred to paloma montes or mountain dove that once abound in the place. Balud commonly refers to the grey or the spotted imperial pigeon.

The year 2009 marked the quadricentennial anniversary of the Christianization of Baler. Presidential Proclamation 1696, declared 2009 as the Year of Baler, stating that "there is necessity to recognize the role of Baler in Philippine history and national development..."

For most tourists, Baler is popular as a surfing destination because of its distinct long stretch of gray sandy shoreline with crashing waves coming from the Pacific Ocean. Popularly known today as "The Birthplace of Philippine Surfing," Baler is one of the most visited places in the country not only by local but also foreign tourists. Thus, creating vibrant economic atmosphere and attracting more investments.

Mayaman sa iba't ibang kuwento ang lokal na alamat kung paano nakuha ng Baler ang pangalan nito. Pero ang pinakatanggap na paliwanag ay galing ang Baler sa salitang balod o balud. Naitala ito at binigyang-kahulugan sa Vocabulario de Lengua Tagala, isang diksyunaryong Tagalog-Spanish na inilathala noong 1754 nina Juan dela Noceda at Pedro de San Lucar. Ayon dito, nagmula ang pangalang Baler sa salitang balod, na tumutukoy sa paloma montes o mountain dove na dating sagana sa lugar. Ang balud ay karaniwang tumutukoy sa grey o sa spotted imperial pigeon.

Ang taong 2009 ang ika-400 anibersaryo ng Kristiyanisasyon ng Baler. Sa Presidential Proclamation 1696, idineklara ang 2009 bilang Year of Baler, na nagsasabing "there is necessity to recognize the role of Baler in Philippine history and national development..."

Para sa karamihan ng turista, kilala ang Baler bilang surfing destination dahil sa kakaibang mahabang dalampasigan ng gray na buhangin na may malalakas na alon mula sa Pacific Ocean. Kilala ngayon bilang "The Birthplace of Philippine Surfing," ang Baler ay isa sa mga pinakabinibisitang lugar sa bansa hindi lang ng mga lokal kundi pati ng mga dayuhang turista. Kaya naman lumilikha ito ng masiglang kalagayang pang-ekonomiya at nakakaakit ng mas maraming investment.
