Lonely Planet review for 'Opaeka'a Falls

While neither the highest nor the prettiest, the 40ft 'Opaeka'a Falls became a major tourist attraction because tour buses can easily stop here. Just head up on Kuamo'o Rd for 1.5 miles and turn right into the lookout parking lot. You're likely to encounter a herd of camera-toting sightseers all capturing exactly the same shot.

Cross the road for an overhead view of the Wailua River. Note that hiking down to the base of the falls is perilous and not recommended, especially after two tourists plunged to their death in 2006.
