“A waterfall with clear, cool water flowing year-round, featuring several tiers suitable and safe for swimming, and situated in a jungle area with high natural abundance.”

Sai Khu Waterfall, located in the Bang Saphan District, is a medium-sized waterfall popular among local tourists seeking to connect with the mountain wilderness. The waterfall consists of several tiers, each beautifully cascading downwards, and features pools where visitors can swim safely. The area surrounding the waterfall is covered by lush rainforest, ensuring a shady and cool atmosphere throughout the day. Although access requires navigating some forest roads, it is reasonably convenient for private vehicles. The clarity of the water is a major charm that draws visitors.

The outstanding uniqueness of Sai Khu Waterfall is its name, derived from the large pair of Banyan (Sai) trees that once stood prominently near the entrance or certain tiers (though only traces may remain today). The most popular tiers are those with accessible pools for swimming, particularly the larger basins where the water is not too deep. The sound of the water crashing against the rocks and the calls of various birds in the forest create a truly relaxing environment. The area around the waterfall is maintained by the local community, keeping the environment natural and clean.

The main activities at Sai Khu Waterfall are swimming in the cascade, relaxing by the stream, and short hikes to explore the different waterfall tiers. The best time to visit is during the rainy season after rainfall (approximately June to October), when the water volume is at its peak and flowing strongly. Visiting on weekdays allows you to experience maximum tranquility and privacy. It is advisable to bring your own food and drinks, as permanent vendor services are usually absent near the waterfall.

Sai Khu Waterfall is an ideal spot for families looking for a safe area for children to play, and those who enjoy light adventure, including nature photographers keen on capturing the vibrant greenery of moss, ferns, and the soft flow of the stream. The quiet and refreshing atmosphere makes this a perfect oasis for rejuvenating the body and mind from the stresses of daily life.

We invite everyone to experience the cool clarity and refreshing nature of Sai Khu Waterfall in Bang Saphan District, to recharge your life with its pure waters and abundant forest.
