There are several waterfalls in the geopark area you can visit and all of it are reachable by your own car. It is a must to take a picture on Darma Peak or ‘puncak’ darma to capture the beautiful 180 view of the area. Another important thing, it would be better if you visit during the dry season around July - August to get the best picture. Because, during rainy season september - February the color of the water turns into mud colors which is not very good for a picture. The beach also got contaminated on this, it turns dirty at the edge and turquoise. To get the best turquoise water color be advised to visit around July - August. There also several cottages and homestay if you plan for an overnight stay but make sure you prepare food and snacks also petrol before you get into geopark. #urbanexplorer #qingmingtravel #urbanexplorer#qingmingtravel
