Sometimes, rains last for several days that outdoor activities are impossible to do. Why not enjoy a "staycation" at a nearby hotel or resort? This is a great way to have a quiet hideaway to rest your mind and body while enjoying the cold weather, the food and of course, the facilities of the hotel or resort.

The best time to visit waterfalls is during the rainy season when the water is in full blast. But be careful in choosing which waterfalls to visit.

Also, always be cautious when visiting a waterfall during heavy rains as it may result to flash floods.
