This list of notable [[Earth:Waterfall|waterfall]]s of the world is sorted by continent, then country, then province, state or territory. A waterfall is included if it has an existing article specifically for it on Wikipedia, and it is at least {{convert|15|m|ft|-1|abbr=on}} high, or the falls have some historical significance based on multiple reliable references.

There is no standard way to measure the height or width of a waterfall. No ranking of waterfalls should be assumed because of the heights or widths provided in the list. Many numbers are estimated and measurements may be imprecise. See additional lists of waterfalls by height, flow rate and type.
