Cascada Gozalandia on Postcard

"Gozalandia Waterfalls As with many other natural wonders in Puerto Rico , there isn't a clearly defined marker. Normally, to find Gozalandia, you would first have to visit it with a local, because getting directions there can be complicated. Lately, thereis talk of turning the waterfalls into an ecoresort). Parking is cheap, but get there early to avoid crowds. There are several muddy paths leading to two beautiful waterfalls. I recommend going on weekdays in the morning. Forget going on weekends, as it will be way too crowded to enjoy it peacefully. If you go during the wet season (August to October), be prepared to just go barefoot. Shoes lose grip, you slide everywhere, and you eventually take them off anyways. I always start by hiking to the top waterfall first, as this one usually has fewer people around it. There's a rope swing for the adventurous and a nice cool water pool for the rest of us. This is definitely a beautiful place to relax in nature."

Waterfalls, Caves, and Rivers! Oh My!

This is a great place to visit! The waterfalls are beautiful, and it's fun to swim in the cool stream. There are 2 Waterfalls, the larger one accessible right away and a smaller one with a rope swing up the path a bit. It is typically busy. We have been 4 times and only once it wasn't crowded $10 to park. The signs say no coolers or speakers but nobody is there to enforce that. I'd prefer to just hear the beauty of nature but many prefer loud music. 4 stars because I think if I'm going to pay to be in nature, there should be someone enforcing the rules. We were caught jn a huge downpour last week while visiting. Definitelt be cautious as the river surges when it rains! The rain doesn't even need to be near you. Listen and be alert, it can be very severe. The surrounding jungle is beautiful and lush with flowers, vines, tall trees and thick canopy!

What an amazing waterfall and swimming hole! The water is fresh, cold, and clear. You can climb on the waterfall and jump off into the deep pool below! I would highly reccomed water shoes as there are many rocks. It's $10 to park, hardly any walk at all, although there are a lot of stairs. They have a restaurant and bar as well as bathrooms.

Beautiful waterfalls with well-maintained concrete steps and paths. Other than just viewing the waterfalls, this is a popular swimming destination. There will be a lot of visitors. There's a long winding road to the top with a steep bit right at the end. I imagine if it was raining it might be a challenge to get up. Once you get to the parking lot, there is somebody standing there asking for $10 cash only. You cannot buy tickets in advance or anything like that, just first come first serve. The parking lot itself is gravel with a lot of dips and bumps. Right at the entrance there is a restaurant, though I did not stop there. It seems to open around 10:30 a.m. when I visited on a Sunday. There are tables and chairs so room to hang out for people who aren't coming just for the falls.

If you are visiting PR or if you live here and simply have never made the time to go visit.....then look no further for your next adventure! You will not be disappointed! Absolutely beautiful with multiple swimming holes, waterfalls and a rope swing that will keep your family having fun for hours! Fun for the entire family, young and old alike!

Excellent place to swim. The water is cool and you can swim closer to the waterfalls and enjoy it from the bottom. The current is not very strong so even non-strong swimmers can enjoy. There is ledge from where you can jump.

The waterfall we went to which was the larger of the two was beautiful and the pool of water was large enough for a good sized group. It has a narrow stairway going down and narrow and steep going up

10 dollars to park. I think that's fair. Beautiful waterfall. Like other people say, it is easy to get to. However, having just had a serious fall where I hurt the back of my head, I was pretty nervous about the stairs here. Slippery stones with algae on some of them and no railings. That's why I'm only giving four stars. It would be quite easy to fix. The bar had non-alcoholic beer which was nice because I was driving, and the staff was very friendly.

Week day visit. Very quiet. Beautiful water falls. I preferred the lower falls.
