Waitavala Water Slides

Next up was the Waitavala water slides! These natural water slides have formed over many years, with the sheer force of the water passing over the rocks smoothing them down into a slippery slide like surface!

If you're going to get wet... go swimming! So of course I gave it a go myself, guided by a couple of local kids. 2 goes from top to bottom was enough for me and I was happy to leave with my limbs unbroken and my brain unconcussed.

For mum reading this, yes there were a number of lifeguards present, a full risk assessment had been performed on every slide, there was a traffic light system to ensure no collisions, a first aid kit was on hand and I wore my armbands 🤥.

This was my last proper stop of the day, other than an ATM which shortchanged me to the tune of $150FJD (or I've been robbed), with about 115km clocked up in total for the day!Read more
