You can't drive directly to the waterfalls — to get there, you'll need to hike about 1 kilometer along a natural trail. There is a parking area nearby, although it might not be obvious at first glance. It's located along a fence where cars line up — don’t miss it. The to the first waterfall is quite steep and made of stairs, but many of them are damaged — in several spots, only the metal supports remain, so you need to be very careful where you step. It's definitely not suitable for older visitors or those without good physical condition. Also, the path can get very slippery after rain. Despite the difficulty, the passes through beautiful nature with lush flora and is worth the effort for those who enjoy hiking. There are actually two waterfalls. The smaller one is directly accessible via the mentioned above. The second one is much larger, but no direct path leads to it. To reach it, take a marked from the opposite side of the village — it will bring you down to the river, and from there, walk several dozen meters upstream along the riverbed to reach the base of the falls. Let me start by saying that the waterfalls are drying out and the at the end of the looks much better in pictures than in reality. The way to the falls are a nice walk in the woods and it's about a mile long. To summarize, visit only if you have many days on the island, otherwise there's much better choices to visit. Park in the village just off the highway (limited spaces) then follow a down through lush forest to the pool. On the day we visited the river was very dry and so the was quite...static, although there was a hint of blue. It's a nice walk, but not worth a trip on itself. We liked it, but didn’t go in. If u go for full trail, can start at Miradouro do Salto da Farinha. The car can go down to sea level where u begin walking Pequena Rita PR21 SMI and lead to the big fall. We chose to turn back after reaching the big fall and park near where google map says Poco Azul 37.8410000, -25.2694980. Then head to the natural of the The path was easily accessible, you can do a loop from the village starting with the marking for Salto da Farinha. The was indeed blue, the water is much colder than in the other waterfalls on the island. There is at least one eel living in the (around 25-30 cm long), we got lucky and saw it swimming around. You are looking for the blue pool, not the disappointment under the bridge at the beginning of the trail. Once you continue the you will see a very clear sign that says "Poço Azul" and you will need to go down for 3 minutes until you see the blue pool. See the pictures for reference. In addition, by all means avoid entering the unpaved route with a car. Park on the road. Also that's @Rorytheyakutian on TikTok We visited in March and were extremely disappointed. The pictures online make this place look like a lush paradise, but the reality was far from it. The was in poor condition—muddy, slippery, and clearly neglected. When we finally reached the waterfall, the water was brown and foamy, likely polluted, and it smelled awful. It honestly looked like cow waste was running through it. This place is totally not worth the visit. Save your time and go somewhere else that’s better maintained and cleaner.
