Kathu Waterfall

Kathu Waterfall is a small seasonal waterfall located in the forested hills of Kathu District, Phuket, Thailand, near Phuket Town and the road to Patong. It consists of a series of cascades and natural pools flowing during the rainy season. Surrounded by tropical forest, it is a quiet local recreation spot for picnics, short walks and swimming when water levels permit, offering a simple nature escape close to urban areas.

Visitors can expect a small forest waterfall with a series of low cascades and shallow natural pools set in tropical woodland. Access is via a short walk on forest trails with rocks and steps. The area includes shaded picnic shelters and open spaces. Water flow is seasonal and strongest in the rainy season; in the dry season pools may be low or dry. The setting is natural and undeveloped, suitable for short nature walks, photography and wading when conditions allow.
