It is a 3-tiered waterfall with free-flowing, cool, crystal-clear waters. The area surrounding Cambugahay Falls has luscious greens that create a relaxing ambience. If you want a thrilling experience, try the prominent "Tarzan swing." Get a water massage! Water rafts can be rented, with a local, to go to the spot where the waters are falling. Brace yourself because the sound of the rushing water will make your day a lazy day. Also, locals are great photographers.

Life jackets are available for rent to enjoy the water and swing like Tarzan. The place is picture-perfect, but having a drone to capture the entire area and the broad picture of this paradise is better. What's challenging are the concrete stairs from the road to the falls.
I stayed here for an hour to take photos. Other locals and guides found it weird because I did not dip into the water but experienced the hidden beauty, touching the cool water, hearing the sound of the rushing water mixed with the birds' lullabies and seeing the happiness of the people around are enough.

- What I did was booked a flight from Manila to Dumaguete Airport because it was cheaper and my backpacking was a tri-province. From Dumaguete Airport, chartered a tricycle to Dumaguete Port. Then, a fast craft ferry to Siquijor.
