Playa Domes
Beautiful waterfall with swimming and an underwater cave. Roughly 45 minutes from Rincón in San Sebastían, it's great for an afternoon adventure.
There are quite a few stairs down to the waterfall. We have done it with a small child without issue. Those with mobility concerns may find this space has accessibility challenges.

Easily accessible waterfall in Rincón. Conditions can vary depending on rainfall. I've been told it's a nice thing to check out, be wary of swimming there depending on rain and mud.
