Kaua’i is an incredible beautiful Hawaiian island and while it does not have the number of https://martin.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/jazzyearl/blog/2018/04/03/336101429 over on Maui, the few I visited were still amazingly beautiful. There are far fewer known falls to go visit on Kaua’i, but there litterally is a volcano COVERED in waterfalls.

Wailua Falls

The 140 ft Wailua Falls was used in the opening scene of the 70’s show Fantasy Island. I really loved watching that show growing up – and of course, the other show paired up with it; The Love Boat.

It is supposed to be split in the middle by the rocks to look like two falls next to each other, but the water was flowing hard indeed.

I think I messed up the angles on this selfie, but hey, it’s the only one I’m sharing in this post so smile with me.

Opeakaa Falls

Very close by is Opeakaa Falls which stands 151 ft tall. A super convenient parking lot is just steps away from this view.

Red Dirt Waterfall

On the drive up to Waimea Canyon, I saw this little run off of water and laughed that it was a waterfall. Little did I know it is actually counted as one on Kaua’i. I’ll let you decide for yourself.

Waipoo Falls

Once you finally reach the scenic overlook for Waimea Canyon (hey, that’s for another post), it is hard to miss the iconic Waipoo Falls off to the left.

You can make out the upper 25 ft falls as well as the lower gigantic 800 ft section in the picture above, but only the bottom section in the following video.

What a beauty!
