    We stop and enjoy Paria Waterfall for about 30min - swim, take photos, and relax. After this, we must walk all the way back to the beginning along the same trail. Hence, the entire hike involves about 16km of hiking.

    On the drive back (approx. 1hr), I give the option to stop off at the popular Maracas Bay to have the famous Bake & Shark or some other local food (approx 40min). Since this is an option, this additional expense will be covered by the traveler. However, although it is an option, most people do opt for it as they are definitely hungry after the hike.
