Trips & Tours Cascadas Tamanique

Trips & Tours Cascadas Tamanique is a series of waterfalls in El Salvador with multiple natural pools connected by flowing water through dense tropical vegetation. The site drops down a mountain slope, with each waterfall forming its own clear pool for swimming.

These waterfalls served as natural boundary markers between indigenous territories in pre-colonial times, separating different groups in the region. They maintained their role as geographic and cultural dividing lines into the present day.

Local people come here to swim and relax with their families, treating the pools as natural gathering places throughout the year. The site remains deeply connected to everyday life in the surrounding communities.

The descent to this site is steep and requires sturdy footwear and about 30 minutes to navigate safely. Bring swimwear since the pools are suitable for swimming, and stay on marked paths to avoid hazards.

The water flows constantly throughout the year, a rare feature in this region that provides stable swimming conditions at all times. This steady flow means the waterfalls remain impressive and accessible even during the dry season.
