About waterfall adventures on the Big Island of Hawaii
Many of these trips are on the Hilo and Hamakua side. You can take a day tour from Kona or Hilo that stops at Akaka Falls and other falls, swim at a waterfall on a private property, rappel down a waterfall, kayak to a waterfall, or see the coast's waterfalls by boat on the Onomea cruise. In North Kohala there are Kohala waterfall adventures.
Trails to waterfalls can be muddy and slippery, so wear shoes with grip. Never swim under a waterfall or in a stream after heavy rain, when water can rise fast. Check each listing for swimming, the pickup point and how long the day runs.
