Waimea Canyon
Grand Canyon of the Pacific
Back to Waimea Canyon
It was so beautiful and it was all free! You get to see the Grand Canyon of Hawaii and if you take the road all the way up it takes you to the top of the Na Pali coast. So gorgeous, we had a wonderful time. I would highly reccommend this to everyone.

Just wanted to let you all know that the Waimea Canyon is located on the island Kauai NOT the Island of Hawaii aka The Big Island of Hawaii.

Waimea Canyon (The Little Grand Canyon), in Koke State Park, is on the Island of Kauai, not the Big Island of Hawaii. I lived in Hawaii for 20 yrs. There is a beautiful place, Waimea (Kamuela), Hawaii on the Big Island, but it's cowboy ("paniolo") country, with the biggest cattle farm in the U.S.A. You can take tours of Parker Ranch up there and see beautiful green hills and mountains. Parker was given land by one of the old kings of Hawaii way back when he married one of the king's daughters. One of Parker's descendents was a movie and singing star, who was a major benefactor to Waimea health and social services when he died.

Waimea is a common name throughout the Hawaiian Islands. For example there is the famous Waimea Beach on Oahu. There is also the town of Waimea on the Big Island of Hawaii. Waimea Canyon is on the island of Kauai not, as suggested, on the Big Island

The Waimea Canyon in Waimea, HI was awesome; make sure you take the outrigger tours. Hawaii is much more then the beach and night life. So totally enjoy "paradise."

Though this entry for Waimea Canyon is cataloged under "Island of Hawai'i" on Yahoo's web-site, it is located on the Island of Kaua'i. Don't dissapoint yourself by looking on the wrong island, for Waimea Canyon is one of the most spectacular sights in the Pacific Basin.

We went to the canyon one afternoon but the low clouds and rain stopped us from seeing anything at the top of the canyon. I am so glad we decided to go back the next day. I could not believe there was such a beautiful place. It had so many different shades of browns, blues and greens. I could have stayed there for hours and enjoyed. what ever you do don't miss this beauty in Kauai

The entire ezperiance of visiting Hawaii was great. The local lifestyle of the hawaiian people made for a very comfortable and relaxing week. The thought of seeing the 'grand canyon' of the pacific'(not quite to the same scale as the real one) was well worth the the the extra cost of coming to these beautiful islands.

This beautiful canyon is known as the Grand Canyon in the Pacific. The spectacular view from the top is a perfect picture spot. A great way to see the canyon is to drive up by car, and then hike or walk up to the top to get a view of the entire canyon. Far below are rivers flowing down from the peaks of this canyon. Another fun way to view the canyon is on a helicopter tour, which will bring you as close as you can get to this kind of stunning nature.
