This country has so lot to offer, from festivals to gorgeous hiking trails, but my personal favourite is Puerto Rico’s stunning waterfalls.

You must see at least one of Puerto Rico’s stunning waterfalls if you are visiting the island.

The majority of them are free, so all you have to do is dress in your bathing suit and water shoes.

Although I am not a native of Puerto Rico, I can undoubtedly assist you in locating the best options. Here are the best waterfalls to visit during your holiday to keep you cool!

Waterfalls in Puerto Rico

Here is our top pick!

Salto Curet Waterfall

The Salto Curet Waterfall is one of the few orange-coloured waterfalls in the world, thanks to an orange clay soil river that originates in the highlands. The trailhead includes designated parking areas, and it takes around 30 minutes to reach the falls from there.

On the approach to the main falls, the route to the Salto Curet waterfall passes via a couple of river vistas. The pool’s waters are not particularly deep and are also safe for guests, descending from a height of 40 feet. There are several sets of waterfalls to explore along the trail for those who like a long nature hike.

Gozalandia Falls

This waterfall, located in the west of the island, is one of the most accessible in Puerto Rico. Locals love Gozalandia Falls because of its easy access, therefore it can get crowded. The 60-foot waterfall has a huge lagoon at its base as well as a subterranean cave where you can swim. There is a parking fee, and it is open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Gozalandia, also known as Las Cataratas or El Roble Waterfall, is one of Puerto Rico’s hidden waterfalls.

It is well-known for its natural pool at the foot of the falls, which has deep and pure waters and draws a large number of tourists who come to swim.

An adventure at the waterfall is enhanced by a rope swing and naturally created jump rocks at the pool’s edge.

The little underwater grotto on the right of the falls is the main feature of the Gozalandia waterfall. It also features an outside cafe where visitors may relax after visiting the falls.

Las Delicias Falls

One of the most popular falls in the Bosque Estatal de Tres Picachos in Cialis is the Las Delicias waterfall, which is about one and a half hours from San Juan or one hour from Ponce. The falls are visible from the road and can also be accessed by a hike up the steps.

The Las Delicias waterfall is one of Puerto Rico’s most family-friendly waterfalls, with shallow pools at the bottom. The main waterfall is one of the most captivating sites at the falls and takes some rock climbing to get to.

It’s an excellent spot for photographs.

A popular waterfall is a bit of heaven. Located in Ciales’s Estatal Bosque de Tres Picachos. In the central portion of the island, roughly an hour or an hour and a half drive from Ponce or San Juan.

The lovely Las Delicias may be seen from the road. The water is beautifully clear, cool but not too cold, and shallow, making it ideal for a family swim.

To get to the main waterfall, you’ll have to climb over a few rocks, but it’s worth it. The sound of water pouring over curving rocks covered in plants and moss is incredibly relaxing.

Juan Diego Falls

Juan Diego Falls used to be one of El Yunque National Forest’s best-kept secrets because it’s not visible from the main road. However, as more people discover this hidden beauty, visit early to avoid the crowds. Before you get to the Juan Diego Falls, you’ll pass by smaller waterfalls and natural pools where you can cool yourself.

Juan Diego Waterfall, located in the El Yunque National Forest, is one of Puerto Rico’s most popular waterfalls due to its short hikes and series of cascades. The first waterfall in the sequence is the most accessible, however, the climb to the second falls is not suggested for beginners or children because it is slippery and dangerous.

The sequence of waterfalls along the trail also contains many swimming holes that are popular with beginners and children. The greatest picnic location at the Juan Diego Waterfall is towards the trail’s end, which is also less busy than the lower falls.

La Coca Falls

The La Coca Falls, located just off the road and easily accessible in El Yunque National Park, is one of Puerto Rico’s most popular waterfalls, attracting both visitors and residents each year. The beautiful 85-foot waterfall, located east of San Juan, is also known among locals for its La Coca route.

Catarata La Coca is a beautiful 85-foot (26-meter) waterfall surrounded by lush rainforest.

Water pours down the smooth granite surface, crashing into the boulders below. The rocks are slick, so swimming isn’t recommended, but it’s a great place to stop and snap photos.

The only problem is that swimming is prohibited, but you may appreciate its beauty by taking a few photographs. The falls are crowded at their busiest times, but every tourist who visits Puerto Rico should make it a point to see them.

La Mina Falls

Cascada is another name for La Mina Waterfall. La Mina is known for its two routes, the La Mina Trail and the Big Tree Trail, which make it one of the top waterfalls in Puerto Rico. The path follows the La Mina River and is also Puerto Rico’s shortest trail, covering 29,000 acres of flora.

There’s nothing quite like a refreshing (meaning COLD) soak in pure rainforest water at the base of one of Puerto Rico’s stunning waterfalls. La Mina Falls is a breathtaking 10.6m (35ft) cascade surrounded by a lush jungle and a picturesque lake.

It also includes a 35-foot pool at the base of the waterfall that may be reached by climbing down the rocks. The La Mina Waterfall is a popular picnic location in Puerto Rico, offering a picnic shelter with tables and benches.

It is the most visited attraction in the El Yunque National Forest, and it may get quite crowded with families, tourists, and groups.

Las Tinajas Falls

Charco Frio has a part called Las Tinajas. You can try to reach the waterfall through the original trail to Charco Frio, but it’s much quicker to pay Mr Basilo to park and take the trail on his property at the end of the road. A rope swing may be found, which locals use to jump into the deep ponds.

The pool at the Las Tinajas waterfall is ideal for rope swings and cliff jumps, and it’s also a great site for a picnic in Puerto Rico.

For its dangerous trek and rapid currents, Las Tinajas waterfall is one of Puerto Rico’s most adventurous waterfalls. Because of the slick rocks, the trail from the river’s edge to the falls is a little risky. The bottom section of the waterfall contains a deep pool with a rope swing that is ideal for children, whereas the major stretch of the waterfall at the top needs good hiking skills.

Salto Collazo

On one side of the bridge, the waterfall is roughly 9m (30ft) high and drops into a nice pool at the bottom. It’s ideal for a swim. There are rocks near the falls that provide for a wonderful picnic spot, however, it is close to the road.

Another one of Puerto Rico’s must-see waterfalls is Salto Collazo. In San Sebastián, this waterfall is right near 111 Road. You may reach there by parking on the main road and walking down to the waterfall alongside the bridge. A second waterfall can be seen further down the river, although the trail is more difficult and less clean.

When there hasn’t been much rain, this fall isn’t much to look at, therefore it’s best to go after it’s poured to get the best flow.

A stunning 30m (100ft) waterfall may be found on the other side of the bridge. Stick to admiring the scenery from afar, as this one is difficult to reach.

Doña Juana Waterfall

This serene spot, located near Villalba, in Orocovis, in Puerto Rico’s Central Mountain Range, along Route 149, is unlike any other. There’s also the added benefit of not having to hike. We could park near the falls and stroll up to them.

Dona Juana Waterfall, located along Route 149 in Orocovis, is easily one of Puerto Rico’s most recognised and magnificent waterfalls. It’s also accessible because you don’t have to hike to get there. A swimming pool can be found at the bottom of the waterfall.

The natural pool at the base of the waterfall is ideal for swimming, but it is one of Puerto Rico’s coldest waterfall pools.

Despite its proximity to the road, it is not a particularly busy waterfall.

Keep in mind that it is not a developed tourist destination, thus there are no restrooms or other amenities.

La Canoa Falls

On Naguabo, La Canoa Falls is located in the subtropical jungle. This waterfall flows from El Hippie River on one of El Yunque’s sides, however, it is not accessible from the Rio Grande. If you continue past the lowest natural pool, you’ll come upon caverns, Taino petroglyphs, and a lot of greenery. If you’re looking for a rush, ask the locals where the best cliff jump is.

It’s hard to believe there are so many waterfalls to view in Puerto Rico, and most visitors will only get to see the North Side of El Yunque, but there are some great hidden jewels on the South Side, like Rio Blanco.

La Canoa Falls can be found above El Hippie Pool. A narrow valley with a 21.3m (70ft) descent between enormous boulders. I realised that the river and waterfall are part of the US Forest System’s only subtropical forest.

This neighbourhood can be difficult to navigate on your own, so I recommend hiring a local tour guide.

There are also some beautiful natural water slides here. This is one of my favourite waterfalls in Puerto Rico. I wouldn’t recommend having little children with you, though.

What is the Best Time to Visit Puerto Rico?

Because Puerto Rico is a tropical resort, the weather is warm all year. The rainy season lasts throughout the summer. As a result, the months of December to April are the busiest for travellers. The weather is still pleasant at this time of year, with the least amount of rain. The disadvantage is that it becomes extremely crowded.

It may be worthwhile to visit shortly before or after the peak season.

How many Waterfalls does Puerto Rico have?

In Puerto Rico, there are approximately 60 main waterfalls that visitors can visit, but it is estimated that the island has over 500 waterfalls of all forms and sizes.

Conclusion

So there you have it, ten must-see waterfalls in Puerto Rico. There is still so much natural beauty to find on such a small island.

Now it’s your time to tell us about your favourite waterfalls in Puerto Rico and around the world by leaving a comment below.

It may come as a surprise to those who aren’t from Australia, but it does snow in some regions of the country. Indeed, it may be one of the most comfortable winters you’ll ever have, thanks to the fact that temperatures rarely drop below freezing, allowing you to enjoy the season. Snow falls in several parts of Australia for three months each year, transforming them into winter wonderlands for people and tourists alike.

Does it snow in Australia?

Whether you plan on hitting the slopes or exploring the snowy wilderness, places like New South Wales, Tasmania, Victoria, and other destinations become packed with snow-filled activities and adventures. Certain attractions may be closed temporarily or require reservations in advance. Currently, some eateries only provide pickup. It’s possible that the hours and availability have changed.

Winter in Australia

In Australia, winter begins in June and lasts until August, a total of three months per year. The nation’s climates are generally cooler during this period, though not all sections of the country receive snowfall. As a result, you’ll have to travel to specific spots to see the snow.

Mountainous terrains characterise the majority of the snowy regions, such as the Victorian Alps, New South Wales’ Snowy Ranges, and Tasmania’s mountains. Meanwhile, in the northern tropics, temperatures rarely fall below 75°F. Temperatures in Australia’s central regions range from 64°F to 75°F. However, it does become cold at times, so dress warmly everywhere you go in the winter.

Temperatures in the south range from 53 to 64 degrees Fahrenheit. As a result, the weather is more bearable than in most other areas. However, you’ll need the extra layers to stay warm, especially at night.

As you get closer to the mountains, temperatures can drop to as low as 42°F on average, however they can go higher or lower.

Rainfall in winter in Australia

The winter season in Australia, with the exception of Tasmania, is characterised by little rainfall. During the dry season, rainfall ranges from an average of 0.5 inches in the north to 3.8 inches in New South Wales and even 7 inches in Victoria. The average measurement in 2016 was 1.9 inches.

Things to do in Australia while snowing

So, now that you know Australia is a hidden winter wonderland, where should you travel for some frosty fun? We look at some of the top resorts in the country to help you find the one that’s right for you, whether you’re searching for gnarly vertical drops or a massage and a glass of good wine in between runs.

Charlotte Pass – New South Wales

Charlotte is a ski-in/ski-out destination. It’s the highest ski resort in the Snowy Mountains, with the most snowfall per year of any ski resort. It doesn’t draw the throngs and hoopla of Thredbo or Perisher because it’s only 50 hectares in size and has only five lifts. It does, however, have the wonderful advantage of being Australia’s only snowbound resort. You can’t get there by car; you’ll need to take an over-snow buggie from the Skitube.

Charlotte Pass is located approximately 500 kilometres (six hours) southwest of Sydney and approximately 620 kilometres (seven and a half hours) northeast of Melbourne.

Falls Creek – Victoria

Falls Creek wins hands down for having the most beautiful mountain village. There is a little hamlet at this resort with restaurants, cafes, and pubs. It is Victoria’s largest ski resort, covering 450 hectares and featuring 15 lifts and more than 90 lines. Because the terrain is less dramatic than in other areas, a staggering 80% of it is suitable for beginner and intermediate skiers.

Falls Creek is located approximately 670 kilometres (seven hours) southwest of Sydney and 380 kilometres (four and a half hours) northeast of Melbourne.

Thredbo – New South Wales

The Crackenback Super Trail, which is five kilometres long, is Australia’s longest run, while Karel’s T-Bar, at 2,037 metres, is the country’s highest raised point. Return to Thredbo Village after the thrills of the mountain slopes, which has the sense of a European ski village with an Aussie accent.

Thredbo is approximately 490 kilometres (five and a half hours) southwest of Sydney and around 530 kilometres (six and a half hours) northeast of Melbourne.

Mount Hotham – Victoria

Mount Hotham is located approximately 700 kilometres (eight hours) southwest of Sydney and 380 kilometres (four and a half hours) northeast of Melbourne.

Hotham is Victoria’s highest resort. It, like Thredbo, has beautiful views and, on good days, offers plenty of powder. If you want to take a break from doing everything yourself, go for a dog sled ride, which involves a pack of huskies dragging you across the snow, or schedule a backcountry snowmobile trip. The community is unique in that it is situated on top of the mountain rather than at the foot, as is the case with regular resorts. This means you’ll not only be able to ski down for the first lifts of the day, but you’ll also be able to stay up in the clouds.

Perisher – New South Wales

Perisher is approximately 490 kilometres (six hours) southwest of Sydney and around 600 kilometres (seven hours) northeast of Melbourne.

Perisher is the largest ski destination in the Southern Hemisphere, with four resorts: Perisher Valley, Blue Cow, Smiggin Holes, and Guthega. To carve up on, there are 1,245 hectares, 47 lifts, seven mountains, and five terrain parks.

Mount Buller – Victoria

Mount Buller is only three hours from Melbourne, so if you don’t mind getting up early, you can ski it as part of a day trip. With 22 lifts spread across 300 hectares, it has more lifts than any other Victorian resort. This resort can be well worth the effort for individuals who don’t mind crowds. It’s not only centrally located, but the high-tech lifts make getting around the mountain a breeze.

Mount Buller is located around 800 kilometers (eight hours) southwest of Sydney and 230 kilometers (three and a half hours) northeast of Melbourne.

What months does it snow in Australia?

 Blue oceans, sandy beaches, and red desert may spring to mind when you think of Australia. However, it does snow in certain of the country’s hilly regions in the south, mainly between the months of June and August.

Do you find snow in Sydney?

Snow is extremely uncommon in Sydney. Jindabyne is a six-hour trip south of Sydney and serves as the gateway to the Snowy Mountains. Snow is also possible in New South Wales’ regional areas, such as the Blue Mountains, Orange, and the Upper Hunter.

Which city of Australia has snow?

Mount Buller is a must-see site for making the most of Victoria’s snow season. It’s only a three-hour journey from Melbourne, making it ideal for day getaways. In the alpine village, there are almost 7,000 on-mountain beds accessible for guests who want to stay longer.

Where does it snow in Australia Map?
