Montezuma Waterfalls
A must visit
WATERFALLS
Located on the southern tip of the Nicoya Peninsula, the Montezuma waterfalls are a stunning natural attraction that draw visitors from all over the world. The waterfalls are a series of three cascading falls, each with its own unique character and beauty.
The first waterfall is the easiest to reach, and is just a short walk from the town of Montezuma. It is a beautiful sight, with crystal-clear water falling into a deep pool below. Visitors can swim in the pool or jump from the rocks into the water, and there are plenty of spots to relax and enjoy the scenery.
The second and third waterfalls are a bit more difficult to reach, requiring a climb and short hike through the jungle. The trail can be steep and slippery, so it is recommended that visitors wear sturdy shoes and bring plenty of water. However, the effort is well worth it, visitors can swim in the pool at the base of the waterfall, or simply relax and enjoy the view. But, for those who don't feel like Indiana Jones, you can also pay 1000 colones ($2) and use the stairs to get up to the top level waterfalls.
In addition to the waterfalls themselves, the surrounding jungle is also a beautiful sight, with lush vegetation and a variety of wildlife. Visitors may see monkeys, iguanas, and a variety of tropical birds as they make their way through the jungle.
To make the most of a visit to the Montezuma waterfalls, it is recommended that visitors wear comfortable clothing and shoes, and bring plenty of water and sunscreen.
Overall, the Montezuma waterfalls are a must-see destination for anyone visiting Costa Rica. With their stunning beauty and natural charm, they are sure to leave a lasting impression on all who visit. (Click the picture to see our video)
