This waterfall consists of one single cascade of 35 m in height that falls into a single, almost circular, pool amidst tropical vegetation.[2] The water is a clear blue color due to its high mineral content. Behind the cascade there is a cave approximately 20 m in length. The pool is suitable for swimming.
