Waterfall

Message from

Montezuma is home to another well-known waterfall; however, very few get to visit. Cocalito Falls is a unique waterfall because it drains into the ocean over a cliff. The waterfall is located on the north end of Cocalito Beach – a secluded, empty, and stunning beach. If you have an ATV or rental car, then you should definitely visit! It’s around a 30-minute drive from Montezuma, and you can park in a parking lot only a short 5-minute walk above the falls. You can then climb down some of the rocks to get a better view of the waterfall and even relax at the beach.

Unfortunately, those without a car need to walk. This is what we did and although a beautiful walk along the beach, it takes 2 hours each way! The trail travels along the ocean, and you’ll pass lots of amazing beaches along the way as well as local villages. It’s a great expereince for the more adventurous.
