A very obscure path leads down to the falls. After a bit of hiking, ropes help you descend down a steep trail where the sounds of rushing water are unmistakable. 

Down in the waterbed, you can find amethyst and quartz. If you arrive during low tide, you’ll get the chance to explore the various caves carved out by seawater.
