The celestial color of the waters that flow from the impressive waterfall are a true sight to behold.

Once your guide picks you up, you'll be taken on back roads to the park entrance. There are restrooms and changing facilities located there. There is an approximately 1-hour hike to do to see the waterfall. Along the way enjoy the deep rainforest that surrounds you on the trail.
