Principe creek

Minutes ago this water came off the edge of a high cliff as one of several impressive waterfalls on the small island of Principe. Think of miniature versions of Salto Angel (Angel Falls)!

As with most of Principe the mountain tops are densely forested and during the rainy season plenty of rainfall replenishes the streams, creeks and rivers that start here, which makes a visit to these waterfalls so amazing.

On an island the size of Principe the path from first contact to the ocean is short, and the water seen here will reach the Atlantic in minutes.

Elevation: 198 meters
