The best time is during the cooler, drier months (May to November) for comfortable walking and clear views; for a more dramatic waterfall flow visit during or shortly after the rainy season (November to April) when the river is fuller. Avoid visiting right after heavy storms for safety.

Tropical maritime climate — warm year-round with a wetter season from November to April and a cooler, drier season from May to November. Expect humidity and possible brief showers in the wet season.

Access usually requires a short drive from nearby towns followed by a brief walk to viewpoints. Roads in the area may be rural — a vehicle is recommended. Some viewpoints have uneven paths and may not be suitable for visitors with limited mobility. Guided tours or local transport options may be available from larger towns such as Mahébourg or Souillac; the nearest international airport is Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam International Airport (SSR) near Mahebourg, typically around 45–90 minutes by car depending on route and traffic.

Allow 1–3 hours for a visit if you only plan to see the waterfall and immediate viewpoints; half or full day if combining with nearby coastal sites, nature reserves, or local villages.

Wear sturdy walking shoes, a hat, sunscreen, and insect repellent. Bring a light rain jacket during the wet season. Carry water and a camera/binoculars for wildlife and landscape viewing.

Nearby towns offer Mauritian coastal cuisine — fresh seafood, curry dishes, and Creole specialties. Look for locally made handicrafts, woven baskets, and souvenirs from nearby village markets. Buying food and crafts locally supports small communities.
