VISTORBELITUNG.COM,The Blue Lagoon Waterfall, also known as Air Terjun Puncak Sari, is part of the famous "Secret Garden of Sambangan" trekking area. Its main draw is the natural pool beneath a mini waterfall.
This pool is deep and the water has a strikingly clear bluish-green hue. This vibrant blue color results from the sunlight reflecting off the pure water, which is surrounded by stone cliffs and thick tropical jungle.
The atmosphere here is incredibly serene and natural, giving you the sensation of being in an untouched, secret garden. It's a perfect escape from the city's hustle and bustle.
For travelers with an adventurous spirit, Blue Lagoon Sambangan offers high-adrenaline activities.
In the Secret Garden area, several spots are available for cliff jumping into the deep pool, ranging from beginner-friendly heights to challenging leaps, some reaching up to 15 meters in other nearby waterfalls along the same route.
Besides jumping, you can also experience the thrill of natural water sliding, particularly at the nearby Kroya Waterfall.
However, it is crucial to remember that these activities must be done with the accompaniment of a local guide for your safety. The guides here are friendly and professional, ensuring your adventure is safe and enjoyable.
