This site had amazing views. There were lifeguards/assistants to ensure your safety. The water was cold, other than that the children had an amazing time in the gorge.Full review by UDD2024

What fun! I was a little anxious to go through the gorge but it was great experience. We did wear life jackets and had a guide and I’m glad we did. He explained what we had to do. Swimming against th…Full review by Donna G

Unreal. One of the best things I did here. Water guid made us feel safe. What a rush. Adventurous. Not for the nervous/scared to traverse a waterfall current gorge.Full review by Julia N
Hi, We are considering doing this when we visit in November. My wife is not a very strong swimmer and is a bit wary. Is there a current, is it deep? Would this be suitable for a non/not very confident swimmer? Many thanks
A:
Yes inside the gorge there is a current which you have to swim against and the water is deep. A life vest is essential and you should be a competent swimmer.

We also used a Tillak Kiwanda Dry Bag and took our valuables in the water with us. As an added precaution, I also put our phones, keys, money and credit cards in an additional Pelican box inside the dry bag. Be sure to roll the bag at least 3 times to ensure a good seal. I also kept some air in the bag so that it would float on top the water. Nothing ever got wet and we never had to worry about our stuff getting stolen. NOTE: You cannot submerge the bag otherwise it will get wet inside, the front little zipper pocket is not waterproof, I would get a light color as black absorbs heat making the bag hot inside which is bad for electronics also if you get yellow it acts as a flag so boaters can see you easier. We also brought a cheap $10 sports equipment net for carrying our snorkel gear in. It doubled as a sandal bag we could take in the water with us so we didn't have to worry about someone stealing our sandals (it has happened before).

The gorge is a good distance from the port. We went with the excursion from the ship. We are glad that we did, because the tour came back late and the ship waited. However, if you go on your own the ship won't wait.
