Frequently asked questions

How intense is the canyoning at Tamarind Falls?
The itinerary is rated 'Everybody welcome', meaning the descents and abseils are accessible to first-timers. You still rappel down active waterfalls in a natural gorge, so expect full-body immersion and real exposure to height and rushing water.
What's the most intense moment of the experience?
The highlight is abseiling directly through the curtain of one of the 7 waterfalls, with the force of the water hitting you on the descent. That's the moment most participants remember.
Do I need to know how to swim?
Basic water comfort is strongly recommended since the route involves wading through pools and descending waterfalls. Check directly with A&A Adventurous Spirit at booking if you have any concerns about swimming ability.
When is the best time to go for maximum water flow?
The season runs from May to September. Earlier in the season, water levels in the Black River Gorges tend to be higher, which means more powerful falls and a more intense experience overall.
