Sightseeing
The waterfall is a beautiful sight, certainly worthy of the short 20 minute hike After enjoying the falls, simply return the way you came. While this is not enough time to work up a sweat, visiting the falls is a nice activity for anyone driving on the 101 and looking for a quick break. Those spending more time in Nojoqui Falls Park can make use of the picnic tables, BBQ pits, and ball fields. The park is free to the public and dogs are welcome on leash.
