Discover Chamarel Waterfall in Mauritius, a spectacular south-west attraction known for its dramatic cascade, lush forest views and scenic Chamarel landscapes. One of the most spectacular waterfalls in Mauritius, plunging 100 meters into a gorge

Chamarel Waterfall is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Mauritius and a must-visit attraction in the south-west of the island. Located in the scenic village of Chamarel, this impressive cascade drops into a lush green valley surrounded by tropical forest, cliffs and mountain scenery. It is one of the easiest waterfalls to admire, with viewing platforms offering beautiful panoramic views without requiring a difficult hike. A visit to Chamarel Waterfall is perfect for couples, families, photographers, nature lovers and repeat travellers exploring the south-west of Mauritius. The waterfall is often combined with nearby attractions such as Seven Coloured Earth, Ebony Forest, Rhumerie de Chamarel, Black River Gorges and Le Morne. With its dramatic natural setting and easy access, Chamarel Waterfall is one of the best places to experience the wild green beauty of Mauritius beyond the beaches. The falls are fed by two rivers that merge before making their dramatic plunge, creating a spectacular sight especially after rainfall.
