swimming here is a pleasure. the current made by the falls is fun! in order to go under the falls you must take the path with ropes. doing canyoneering with this waterfall as a goal in mind made swimming here 10x better.

Finally, visited Kawasan Falls again after a year. Still mesmerized by its beauty. Even though we did not avail the canyoneering activity, my friends and I still enjoyed jumping and swimming on the third falls. We had so much fun!

For nature lover, this place is perfect for you. It’s a 2 to 3 hours ride from the city and a little walk from the highway, but that long travel is really worth it. Beautiful falls, clear and cold water. For those who love adventure, have fun and enjoy the canyoneering. Recommended place to visit.

Entrance Fees are absurb. It is to much and guides does do much especially for locals who has visited more than 10 times. That should be an option and not a requirement.

What a nice place for adventure! Though, it’s a long drive from Cebu City but it was worth it when you get there. It’s our first time to visit Kawasan Falls and we didn’t regret it. Me and my friends love extreme activities, so this place really suit us. You must try the canyoneering tour if you really an adventurous person, like us. You’ll going to experience climbing, hiking, cliff diving and etc. Tired but super fun! We’re planning to go back soon.

A bit of trekking, and a lot of sliding and jumping. It was a super fun experience and the color of the water makes the experience even better.
Our guide was very supportive and fun, my partner was not comfortable doing jumps and the guide found out ways and tracks for him to experience the falls without jumping.
Area near the main fall gets very crowded.
Non- swimmers can do it too, just tell your guide in advance.

Beautiful falls, blue water, slides, cliff diving, rope diving, swimming and a bit of nature walk. What could we ask for more. As one get stunned by the beauty of the place, one can enjoy as much and have a great time.
There were people yet can enjoy the sound of nature and water falls.
I had a great time and enjoyed very bit.

I want to go down the canyon but I'm not great with heights!! I've read that you don't have to do the jumps after the first one - does this mean you can swim all the way down to Kawasan falls, or would you be stuck just walking on a track alongside the water if you don't want to jump in from massive heights?

Hi, my partner completed the whole circuit without doing a single jump. The guides will give you an alternate route. Yes, you'll be walking alongside the track for just a couple of minutes. The rest of the time you'll be floating, swimming, scrambling like everyone else.
However, you need to tell the guides in advance about your preferences.
Hope this helps. :)

I dont know how to swim and i can see they have lifejackets around. I wanna try all the jumps i could get. Is it safe? Like do they have enough guides/lifeguards around? 😂

We are with my one year old daughter. Is this place accessible and safe to bring an infant?

Yes - it's a wide easy level path to the falls. You are near water most of the way so obviously take the usual precautions for a child near water - don't let them out of your sight for 1 second.

Bonjour,
Durant notre trajet Moalboal, Oslob, nous voulons nous arrêter aux Kawasan Falls.
Est il possible de laisser ses affaires sur place (style casier)?
De plus, avez vous peut-être un contact à nous donner où nous pourrions éventuellement nous rapprocher.
Merci d’avance pour votre aide précieuse.

I’m bringing my daughter to the Philippines for Spring Break. She’s 9. Is she old enough to go on a guided Canyoneering trip with me?

Yes I think they will allow her to join as long as she is not scared of jumping in the waterfalls. It is just safe since one needs to wear a life jacket and head gear for protection.
Do they have lockers and if so, how much?..
Someone mentioned if only viewing the falls you are only allowed level 1 is this true? can you still visit all levels just for photo opportunities?

I read in the reviews that you must rent a life jacket to swim in the falls. Is this true?
Also, it sounds like the canyoneering is basically just moving downriver from above the falls until you get to the main falls at Kawasan. Is it possible to do this on one's one? Is a rope required?

Yes, everybody has to wear a life jacket for canyoning. Ideal is if you go through an agent because they know all about safety there. Every agency has a certain plan what they do during the canyoning. It's not just moving from there to here. It's actually very enjoyable. A rope is not required when you hike to the falls. I did the canyoning with Cyan agent and they are honestly the best because they do care about your safety, I wouldn't do it on my own for sure. I don't think it's safe. I met people going for it with different agencies and there were accidents by not following the safety.
