Hiking around the waterfalls
From above, Wailua Falls looks really beautiful.Very few people get to see it from this angle unless they fly over in a helicopter.
There are great hikes and waterfalls on every Hawaiian island.
But Kauai has something special — it’s easy to experience some of the island’s best spots.Many of the waterfalls in this post can be seen from a short drive to an easy overlook.We did a short to moderate hike to Ho’opi’i Falls, and it was really worth it.All of the places in this post were visited in one day, and they’re all close to each other.We saw three waterfalls and did three hikes.
Waterfalls: Wailua Falls, Opaeka’a Falls, and Ho’opi’i Falls
Hikes: Ho’opi’i Falls Trail, Sleeping Giant, and Tree Swing
Kauai is full of adventure.
If you’ve never been, you should definitely check it out.Rent a car, drive for two days, and you’ll see a lot of the same amazing things.

I can imagine how breathtaking it must be to see Wailua Falls from a helicopter, and even more so, experiencing it up close with the hike to Ho'opi'i Falls. Your post makes me want to plan a trip to Kauai ASAP 🌴💦🏞️
