One of the most spectacular waterfalls in Mauritius, plunging 100 meters into a gorge.
Mauritius is filled with mystical waterfalls that are just waiting to be discovered and enjoyed, and one of them is the famous Chamarel Waterfall! Ask locals and visitors their favorite waterfalls and this one will surely make its way to the top of the list! Chamarel Waterfall is the highest waterfall in Mauritius, with water cascading nearly 100 meters down a stunning cliff face into the gorge below. Located within the Chamarel Nature Reserve, the waterfall is surrounded by lush vegetation and offers breathtaking views from the viewing platform. The falls are fed by two rivers that merge before making their dramatic plunge, creating a spectacular sight especially after rainfall.
