Pithara Waterfalls
Pithara Waterfalls is a multi-tiered cascade located near Apikia that drops across natural rock formations. The water creates natural pools between the steps where it settles briefly before flowing onward.
The falls have been known locally for generations and valued by the surrounding communities. They remain part of the natural water system that has shaped the landscape for thousands of years.
Wear shoes with good grip because rocks become slippery when wet from the mist and spray. Bring water and sun protection, especially on warm days, and take breaks during your walk.
The water displays a greenish-blue tint that glows beautifully on sunny days due to its mineral content. This color effect is enhanced by the depth of the natural pools and how light interacts with the rocks below.
