What to expect

Join us for a unique experience to snorkel towards an all-year-round massive waterfall. Drinking water bursts out of the wall making this an incredible place to visit. In this experience we organize transport to the location, and we have a short hike (going down approximately 300 steps) to the water stream where it's time to get wet. In the wetsuits we follow the stream upwards until a beautiful, but we mean, BEAUTIFUL natural lagoon. From here we take the snorkels and swim further into the cave and reach the big waterfall. After the refreshing swim and a fruit snack we then hike back up (a different route of approximately 100 steps).
