Kauai Kayaking & Hiking - Secret Falls Hike and Paddle

The Wailua River became the center of activity for early Hawaiians and is known as one of Hawaii's two most sacred places. At night, it is said that one can still hear ancient drums thunder in concert with the nearby surf.

The trail leading to a secret waterfall is a beautiful "greenhouse" where flowers, brooks and ferns abound. The early Polynesian culture is represented here, steeped in a colorful past, rich with rock-wall terracing, legends and lore. The setting for this jaunt is tranquil and tropical, the pace is unhurried.

It is a delight in sharing the peaceful, pastoral existence of ancient Hawaii, bird watch for a night heron or coot and swim in a fern bordered pool at the falls. Come share the life and natural history of this mystical land and enjoy its great quiet with Kayak Kauai!
