I've been to this place countless times before. Though its accessibility has improved (with stairs), there are no balustrades or any support which you can lean on when you ascend.

The waterfalls are not huge or the most stunning waterfalls ever seen. No reason to actually go in the area. However, if you already have rented a motorbike, they are a very nice stopover for a few hours, if you like to go for a swim. The water is clear green, there are several levels of the waterfalls with natural... More

The falls were nice enough and made for a pleasant swim. But the fellows at the turnoff from the main road where we parked our motorbike warned us to watch our things and there were indeed some awfully shady characters lurking about the pools at the falls.

It took me a while to find the falls (!!) but it was worth the visit and the swim in the cooling water.

I was curious why they were selling energy drinks when we arrive. I found the answer when we started walking down on their steep stairs, it was like a hundred steps. It was a great experience in the falls where it felt like swimming in a hidden sanctuary, the best part of the falls was swinging on a branch to... More

We went to Cambugahay Falls a little late in the afternoon (4pm) after travelling on motorcycle all the way from Siquijor town passing the municipalities of San Juan and Lazi, taking our time in every attraction, tourist spots, beautiful scenes along the way. Cambugahay is some minutes away from Lazi town taking the Lazi-Siquijor-Larena Hi-way - a mountainous road that... More

Very nice place to take a quick deep specially with Siquijor's scorching heat during summer. They built stairs down the falls and the only thing about it is that, its difficult to climb up that 135 steps from down the falls.

I enjoyed my stay in Cambugahay Falls. The blue waters and natural beauty of the place is charming in its own right. You can jump into the pool by using the hanging vine or jump of the cliff on one of the cascading falls. The water's great and we were able to mingle with the locals as they jumped over... More

Nice freshwater swim, and you can also jump off one of the cliffs into the waterfall and the pool below. Nothing amazingly special though. Do not leave any valuables unattended.
