You step off the air-conditioned van into humid green: water runs cold and insistent over smooth stones, ferns lean close, and the Dolphin Head ridge sketches the horizon. Guides lead a steady line through shallow channels and over tumbled boulders, pausing where mineral-rich cascades form glassy pools that invite a slow, deliberate dip.
