Exceptional
We ventured to the beautiful Kawasan falls on a one day excursion. It was truly an amazing experience. We paid 1300PHP (£19.70) per person from a local shop next to the French Cafe in Panagsama Beach. This included pick up from our hotel in Moalboal Centre. The excursion included Canyoneering which was epic and the falls were beautiful! On arrival at the Falls we paid an additional 500PHP (£7..60) per person to do Zip lining). It saved a 45 mins walk through the forest to the actual falls and it was great fun! Lunch was also included and a drink with it. We were picked up from our hotel 09:15 and dropped off at 16:30. Be warned that this excursion is ran by various other companies who charge on average 3000PHP (£45.64) per person. They promise snacks and photos but for the price it’s not worth it. So far, it’s been the highlight of our trip in Cebu. Most definitely recommend a visit.

Not some idyllic secluded hidden treasure; Just OK
There was a bit of a walk in along a track, not terribly far but not close either. You have to pay to park, pay to get in and when you reach the end you arrive at the falls which has a seating and restaurant area which is right next to the pond at the bottom of the falls. Ruined the illusion of a forest falls a little and we were charged P600 to hire a table to sit at so you either pay or you’re sort of stuffed. I’d say crowded is not an unfair word to use. It was nice enough, the falls themselves are nice but not hugely spectacular and you can swim or paddle at least in the pond extending from it. The bottom of the pond has sharpish volcanic rock so wear some footwear. I would not go out of my way to go there again unless family had a desire to, a swim in the pool would have been as nice for me as a waterfall directly adjacent a restaurant isn’t quite scenic for me, I didn’t hate the experience nor did I love it. Refreshing enough but for me just OK. You might love it, don’t let my honest review put you off if you are leaning toward going.
