The best time to see the waterfalls at their absolute peak flow is during the rainy monsoon seasons. For falls in the central highlands like Bambarakanda and St Clairs, visiting between May and September guarantees a spectacular, thunderous display of water.

While the rainy season offers the most powerful views, the trails can be very slippery. If you prioritize safe hiking and swimming in the natural pools, visiting just after the monsoon in December or January offers a perfect balance of good water flow and dry paths.
