Tunan Waterfall, Manado Overview

The Tunan Waterfall is one of the many waterfalls located in Sulawesi, with a height of 86 meters surrounded by lush green forests and a sheer rock face. The picturesque waterfalls flow into the narrow canyon present at the foot of the cascades, with misty water giving it a beautiful appearance.

Tourists can even enjoy swimming under the falls, but since the waters have a rocky bed and are only 1.5 meters deep, it is best advised to not go straight diving or jumping into the waters. The relatively unknown nature of the falls makes it an excellent place to visit for those that want to escape from the city and enjoy some solitude with their loved ones.
