Montezuma Waterfall

The Montezuma Waterfall is one of Costa Rica’s most enchanting natural attractions, located near the charming beach town of Montezuma, about 30 minutes away from Santa Teresa. This three-tiered cascade is surrounded by lush tropical forest, offering a serene escape for nature enthusiasts and adventurers alike. The main waterfall plunges about 80 feet into a crystal-clear pool, perfect for a refreshing swim. Visitors can swim in the pools at the base of the falls, and jump from some of the smaller structures for a thrilling experience.
