Oahu, Hawaii — Waimea Falls
It had been raining on and off for the four days before we went to the falls. On the day we visited, there were also two brief showers.
We bought tickets on-site after arriving. Even though it was rainy, the plants and scenery along the path to the falls were still beautiful.
Wet rocks, hidden currents and fast-changing weather catch out experienced hikers every year. Read our quick safety guide before you head out.
