However, as far as the main waterfall area was concerned, it was said to have a cumulative drop of 36m over the seven or so drops that we were able to access. In addition to the scenic allure of YS Falls, what really struck us during our visit here was the fun atmosphere of the place. We saw people taking their pick of which swimming hole to choose from, and each of the waterfall tiers seemed to have pools conducive to swimming both above and below it. On some of the waterfall tiers, we witnessed people taking turns plunging off rope swings into some of the deeper pools.
And while all of this was happening, we heard zipliners screaming in excitement above us as they were zooming by from the top to the bottom of the YS Falls.
Here, there was a gift shop, a waiting area for the return tram, changing rooms, and an artificial swimming pool. There were also other footpaths that went away from the waterfall towards other parts of the complex for additional activities. Anyways, we followed a pretty obvious walking path that led past the artificial swimming pool and then to a pretty extensive lawn area.
In this lawn area, there were picnic tables and even booths for booking the zipline ride as well as shopping at more curio shops. Beyond the lawn area, there were a few small cascades and swimming holes to already start cooling off from the tropical Caribbean heat.
Next, the walkway then became stairs as it flanked the right side of the stream alongside each drop of the YS Falls. There were also multiple exit points where we could take a detour towards each cascade for the opportunity to take more photos, go for a swim, or even wait in line to plunge off some rope swings not sure if that costed extra.
This walkway also allowed us to capture all the action without getting wet a good thing for taking pictures without the risk of destroying our camera. Eventually, I was able to go up to a wide waterfall just past the starting point for the zipline which I believed was called the Chukka Canopy Tour during our December visit.
When we had our fill of the YS Falls, we returned to the main lawn area to chill out and soak in a little more of the atmosphere. That was when we realized that there were even more activities on offer here such as river tubing further downstream of YS Falls as well as more walking trails to explore a little more of this pretty extensive complex.
It is privately owned and operated by the YS Estate. For information or inquiries about the area as well as current conditions, you can try to visit their website. We actually did this waterfall as part of packaged tour with the Black River Safari, which gave us the opportunity to spot American Crocodiles or are they alligators?
Once we were at the car park for the YS Falls, we we paid for our admission, then we boarded a tractor-pulling jitney which took groups of people across the YS Plantation roughly a minute ride to the main waterfall area. Bottom up sweep from perhaps the best photo spot with successive zoom-ins towards the top of the YS Falls. Nearly degree sweep from the walkway to the falls with a rope swinger to the falls downstream and beyond. Right to left sweep starting with the tallest tier than ending downstream.
