Spectacular Wailua Falls is one
of the finest waterfalls in Hawaii.


You can almost hear Tatoo exclaim "Da plane! Da plane!" as you stand and view beautiful Wailua Falls. This twin tropical waterfall is the same one which was filmed in the opening credits of the 1970's TV series "Fantasy Island". A short drive from the town of Lihue will bring you to this wonderful island waterfall.

Great photos of this waterfall are easy to get from the lookout area above.

How full of water the falls are depends upon the time of year that you visit. The photos on this page show the falls both ways - with a lot of cascading water and with only an average amount. But it is a beautiful site to see either way.

famous red dirt found on the island of Kauai.

A view of the falls from the river bed below. The falls are not
quite as full in this photo, but are still a beautiful site to see.


Just before you enter the view point parking lot, there is the beginning of a steep trail (not well defined) which leads down an embankment to the bottom of this Hawaii waterfall. It is not for the faint of heart, but it is definitely a worthwhile hike for those in shape enough to try it. You can swim at the base of the falls once you reach the bottom of the trail. Or you can hike downriver and explore the river canyon area. Just make sure that you bring some mosquito repellent.

Side Note:
Would you be interested in building your own website? A site that you alone create (out of your own imagination) and which also earns an income for you? Click here for my review of just such an opportunity.

This photo was taken using a slow shutter speed to blur the water and give the image a more silk-like appearance.

One more look at this beautiful tropical waterfall.

Wailua Falls along with Waimea Canyon, is one of those special places you don't want to miss seeing upon a visit to Kauai, Hawaii. Especially if you like to take great waterfall pictures.
