About this stone

Just outside the village, a quiet waterfall tumbles down the cliffs toward the sea, offering a peaceful stop along the coastal drive. Surrounded by lush green slopes and the ever-changing sky, the waterfall is easily visible from the road. It makes for a refreshing pause on your journey. While it may not be the tallest or most dramatic in the region, its charm lies in the simplicity of the setting, where the sound of rushing water blends with the call of seabirds and the soft hum of village life nearby. It's a reminder of how seamlessly nature weaves into everyday life here.
