Visited this place several times and watched the locals jumping into the pool below the falls, about 16 metres or so. On our last visit a youth jumped from a tree from a height of about 25 metres - an awesome leap! I've not plucked up the courage to do the jump but it's worth a look. More

leave your car on the hillside and walk down in the sugar cane fields. At a junction you will get the magical encounter. columns of water rushing down and people diving from the top. A real sensation. The rocks have been polished with time and seemed man made. More

Was on a tour with some friends in the country and the Rochester Falls was on our way. We stop by to have a break and that was something special. Its the second time I've been there and it is always quite a sensation to see the water splassing on the rocks and the sound was very appealing. More

We visited in Feb and it was dry and parched. The access was not well marked and getting to the waterfall was difficult. We had to leave our car along the way and walk 1500m to see the waterfall. Hot, Stifling, almost dying by the time we arrived to see it. Not pleasurable. More
