Attractions

Take a helicopter ride over Waimea Canyon, the valleys and cliffs of the Na Pali Coast, the Valley of the Lost Tribe, and the wettest spot on earth, the Waialeale Crater. Along the way, keep your eyes open for familiar scenery from popular movies, including Jurassic Park and Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Activities

Board a double kayak for a two-mile paddle to the upper reaches of the famous Wailua River. Along the way, stop and make the hike to the Uluwehi Falls, where you can have lunch and relax in the beauty of Hawaii. Experience Waimea Canyon, the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. The canyon's dramatic size, combined with the reds and browns of its exposed volcanic rock and the blues and greens of lush tropical vegetation, creates a truly unforgettable sight. Explore the shores of Lumahai Beach and Bali Ha'i Mountains, made famous in the musical South Pacific. Go four-wheeling through remote, winding back roads into lush forests abundant with exotic foliage.
