WHERE IS KAWASAN FALLS?

Kawasan Falls is located 120km south of Cebu City in the Badian region. From Cebu City to Kawasan,  it’s approximately a three-hour drive.

Though the majority of people visiting these falls choose to stay a couple of days in the beachside town of Moalboal which is located just forty minutes drive north of Badian.

KAWASAN FALLS TOUR

I recommend pre-booking a Kawasan Falls Tour Package online in advance which includes return transfers from your accommodation so you won’t need to worry about the logistics.

HOW TO GET TO KAWASAN FALLS CEBU?

If you don’t book online, the other option is to find your own way to the entrance of Kawasan Falls in Badian and here you can find many different Kawasan Canyoneering Tour Companies to book on the spot with cash.

The best way to reach Kawasan Waterfalls is to rent a scooter in Moalboal and make the forty-minute drive south to Badian.

There are scooter rental stores located in Moalboal where you can get your hands on some wheels for around 400 pesos per day with a full tank of gas.

Alternatively, there is a public bus to Kawasan from Moalboal which stops at the entrance and the cost of the bus is around 20 pesos.

ARRIVING AT KAWASAN CANYONEERING

Upon arriving at the Kawasan Canyoneering Headquarters, we met our guide Raul who got us fitted into the required safety equipment such as water shoes, life jackets, and helmets. We were also provided with a water bottle that slotted into our life jackets which came in handy as the Badian canyoneering is thirsty work!

I left my bag in the safety lockers at headquarters and packed my GoPro camera and 200 pesos in cash into a dry bag that they provided.

There is a makeshift snack store selling cold drinks and BBQ goods at the halfway point in the canyon, so you may want to take some money with you.

After a quick souvenir photo under the Kawasan Canyoneering sign, we jumped on the back of a habal-habal (motorbike taxi) for a ten-minute drive uphill to the trailhead of the canyoneering adventure.

As soon as we arrived at the top of the hill, we were given a quick safety briefing on what to expect down in the Badian Canyon.

We then followed our guide Raul along a jungle trail to the top of Canlaob River and this is where the Kawasan Falls Canyoneering begins!

MY EXPERIENCE AT KAWASAN FALLS

Before we knew it we were completely submerged in the first rock pool.

Soon after, Raul made us sit down at the edge of a one-meter cliff before he gently pushed us backward over a small set of falls into another rock pool below.

At this point, I knew we were in for an epic adventure!

We then continued navigating our way through knee-deep water that was as clear as crystal. Our guide Raul was very cautious and always provided a helping hand through the slippery trails.

He also kept asking us throughout the whole trail whether we were doing alright and he provided us with the best instructions on where and when to jump in order to keep us safe.

The water trail took us through some amazing caves and natural rock slides. There were also numerous cliff jumps ranging anywhere from three meters up to fourteen meters.

It is also important to note that if you are afraid of heights you’ve always got the option to walk or climb down the cliffs instead of jumping. In fact, most of the guides walk the entire trail without jumping.

If you plan on visiting a lot of waterfalls in the Philippines, I recommend purchasing these three items:

  1. Waterproof Phone Case
  2. Waterproof Dry Bag
  3. Slip-On Waterproof Shoes

A helping hand from Raul

The trail on the Badian canyoneering adventure will take you through the most tranquil scenery and you might want to stop at a couple of places to take a few pictures if you brought a waterproof camera along with you.

When you reach the end of the canyon it will bring you to the famous Kawasan Falls Cebu.

You can spend as much time as you like at the main falls as there are about five different levels of waterfalls and several big cliff jumps to keep you entertained.

View on Osprey

There are also a few restaurants by the main waterfall to grab something to eat and drink.

As we had already explored the main falls earlier that morning, we decided to avoid the crowds and instead make our way back to the Kawasan Canyoneering headquarters.

Raul got us to jump into the back of a tricycle at the entrance to the falls for a short two-minute drive back to headquarters.

Once we got back to the registration office we had time to freshen up in the showers and put on dry clothes before being served a delicious lunch!

The Canyoneering at Kawasan Falls experience takes around four hours from start to finish.

I highly recommend anyone who plans to visit Moalboal to add this experience to their South Cebu itinerary.

It’s a very memorable, and adrenaline-driven activity that will leave you feeling pretty exhausted but super happy at the end!

  2. Hi, I have read your website and the canyoneering post is great! I was wondering given you posted in Dec 2022, did you go after typhoon Odette? Is it really 4 hours? I am really interested but was wondering if there’s a shorter 2 hours one.

    We are staying near the airport so would ideally like to book a private tour to and from the hotel.

    Thanks!
