Cascade de Bis, Waterfall in Sainte-Rose, Guadeloupe, France
Cascade de Bis features a dramatic waterfall surrounded by natural boulders that form a perfect basin for cooling off after the trek through dense tropical vegetation.
The cascade has evolved from a local treasure known only to residents into a recognized hiking destination that gained popularity through social media and backpacker circles over recent years.
Local anecdotes tell of the cascade serving as a peaceful retreat for villagers who traditionally used the area for bathing, picnicking, and simple relaxation within this natural setting.
Visitors can access the waterfall via two main routes including a shorter 2.5 kilometer walk starting near the Séverin distillery or a longer 7.5 kilometer trail connecting to the forest road.
The site offers secluded niches within the rock face where visitors can enjoy a natural shower experience away from larger crowds in complete privacy and tranquility.
