Traveller reviews
Sapadere Canyon was cooler, greener, and quieter than the coast, which made it a perfect break from beach days. The walkway was easy to follow, and the small waterfalls made every corner feel worth stopping for. The cave visit added variety, even though the canyon itself was my favorite part. Wear sensible shoes because some areas near the water are slippery.
The sound of the water and shade from the rocks made it feel completely different from Side.
Less famous than other places, but very charming and not too intense.
The road to Sapadere has some bends, so take motion sickness tablets if you need them. Once we arrived, the fresh air and clear water made the journey feel worthwhile. Lunch in the village was simple and friendly rather than fancy. I would have liked a little more time at the main waterfall, but overall it was a lovely nature day.
I liked the local feel of Sapadere village. It didn't feel like a staged stop.
I would have liked ten more minutes at the main waterfall, but the day was well planned.
