Gozlandia Falls

There is a reason Puerto Rico is called the Isla del Encanto. With such a diverse topography and climate, it offers a plethora of activities and scenery to enjoy. After seeing so many beautiful beaches we wanted to try something different.

One of the things we enjoyed the most about Tennessee was the topography and climate. Puerto Rico's interior is very similar to its rugged terrain, steep hills, and scenic vistas. The Mountains of Puerto Rico are vast with an array of tropical foliage like Palm Trees, banana trees and giant dragon bamboo.

So we set out to a remote waterfall on the west coast side of the island in the little town of San Sabastian. A two-hour drive from San Juan gave us plenty of time to look out the window and enjoy each others company. As usual, there are unique little stops along the way for pictures and snacks.

The last 30-minute drive to the waterfall provided scenic overlooks and narrow winding roads. We arrived at the parking area, where there is a 5 dollar fee. There are a restaurant and bar on the premises and the falls are a short hike up and down the mountain.

There is nothing more relaxing than the intense sound of thousands of gallons of water pouring over the side of a giant rock! One can feel the stress just melt away. Just another check to add to the bucket list. We recommend this as another great day trip activity.
