Majestic, eternal, irresistible: Kaieteur Falls retain a unique nature atmosphere in the middle of the Guyanese land. Where else can you look straight down a 741 feet abyss with the tallest single drop waterfall thundering down right next to you?
And I was lucky. After days of incessant rain, the water in the sky stayed in clouds, the skies dried up, and rays of sunlight trickled through the deck of grey and white. I jumped down on a ledge where the water curls over the rocks and plunges down, and stood right next to the point of no return. Even better: I lied flat on my belly and moved over the edge, which allowed for a truly spectacular view right down the wall of water below me, and the powerful cloud of waterspray that it causes. As soon as the sun gets through, the spray causes a lasting rainbow below you. Just before sunset, thousands of swifts gather in the sky above and, one by one, dive down and find a place to spend the night behind Kaieteur Falls. This is precisely one of the features of Kaieteur Falls I love: seeing it is a very natural experience, there is a completely absense of any kitschy souvenir stalls, hotels, casinos, bridges, or other interference that you find near some other great falls. What is more: I was the only person around, and could claim Kaieteur Falls to be mine. At least for the time I was there. One of the most powerful moments was in the morning, when I was taking a bath, standing naked right at the edge of the falls, an arm length away from the powerful falls.
