KAWASAN FALLS

I visit Kawasan Falls twice already and still it takes my breath away. If you will visit Cebu, better include Kawasan Falls in your itinerary. It is located at Mt. Matutinao in Badian (Southwest part of Cebu)and it will take 3 hours ride by bus / van. In our case, we rent a van that will accommodate for 10 persons and a guide that will bring all our belongings. From the entrance, you will have to walk 20 - 30 mins through rivers and wooden bridges.

so...so...so... EXCITED !

There are 3 falls in Kawasan and the most popular is the first falls which is the largest and most crowded area.

First Falls

You may bring food or buy from the restaurants. Cottages and tables are also available for rent, as well as rooms for overnight stay.

You may rent a raft to take you around the lagoon or for a refreshing "shower massage" under the falling water. Life vests are also available for a very affordable price.

so WET!

Tito Bill, Grace. Uncle Amay and Janz decided to go to the second falls. It will take another 10 minutes trek before you get to second falls and another 10-15 minutes trek to the third falls. I already visited the area so I decided to stay and just relax at the cottage.

NOTE: If you want to take Public Transportation to Kawasan Falls you can take CERES bus at South Bus Terminal with sign-age Bato or Samboan via Barili. Departure time is as early as 4:00 am. Just tell the driver or conductor that you want to drop in Kawasan Falls Entrance (just left side of the street with a church). You will pay Php 10 / person and just follow the road to the falls. There are cottages for rent within the area for about Php 300. If you want to rent a raft to experience the "Natural Massage" you will have to pay Php 300 and another Php 30 / person if you want to use a life vest (useful especially for children). Many overnight cottages can be rented for about Php 800 to Php 2,000 depending on the number of people availing the room. If you don't want to spend a night, better leave the falls around 4:00-5:00 pm so that you can get a bus back to Cebu City.
