Explore Kawasan Falls in Cebu City

Kawasan Falls is a multi-tiered cascading water that flows out from a 1 sq. m. opening. The first level, which happens to be the largest, is the most crowded. Going uphill to the next level may take fifteen minutes as well as to the third level. If you decide to explore the higher waterfalls, you might need to hire the services of a “carrier-cum-guide” which will be an added cost. So travel light and bring only wash and wear clothing. Guests can bring their own provisions, but if that is cumbersome, they can buy their food from the restaurants at the resort, however, they should be prepared to be shocked of the higher than the usual selling prices which is really normal at establishments of this nature.
If you include this tourist destination in your Cebu Tour, you will experience nature’s beauty in its total grandeur. You can take a dip in the cool refreshing waters that will surely take the tiredness away after the trek and the long bus ride. Here, you can experience “a natural massage” by hiring a raft for about P300 to take you under the falling water. The price is just comparable to the price a professional masseuse would command if you see one in the city. Since Kawasan Falls is 38 ft. deep, you might need to also rent a life vest which costs P30. The additional amount is a small price for your security especially if you are not confident of your swimming skills.


There are many cottages for rent for about P300 around the area, where you can just relax after swimming and just let the serenity of the mountains lull you to slumber. Don’t be annoyed if an occasional shout as well as children’s excited cries wake you up because they are aplenty in popular tourists destinations like this. To avoid them, try to come earlier or better yet, don’t come on the weekend as you might need to compete for space with them, lol. If you want to maximize your Cebu tour, spend an overnight in the falls. Many overnight cottages can be rented for about P800 to P2000 depending on the number of people availing the room.
