Hawaiian Waterfalls

This collection features prominent waterfalls across the islands of Kauai and Maui. On Kauai, highlights include the 80-foot twin drops of Wailua Falls and the remote 300-foot Hanakapi'ai Falls along the Na Pali Coast. Maui’s contributions are centered along the Road to Hana, featuring accessible roadside stops like the three parallel plumes of Upper Waikani Falls and the tiered pools of Twin Falls. The list also includes Manawaiopuna Falls, famously featured in the film Jurassic Park, and several cascades within the lush Wailua River State Park.
