2 Close Up of ‘Ōpaeka’a Falls near Wailuā on Kaua’i, Hawaii

A popular site on the Island of Kaua’i is watching the ‘Ōpaeka’a Falls cascade 151 feet over a lava-formed cliff. These roaring twin currents are 40 feet wide. They can safely be enjoyed from an overlook on Kuamo’o Road near the town of Wailuā. Resist the temptation to take one of the hidden trails to the pool below. The paths are not maintained by the Wailuā River State Park. Several tourists have died when they ignored the warning signs.
