What To Expect

Paddle the majestic Wailua River for 2 miles each way (4 miles total round trip), original home of the first Hawaiians, who paddled 1500 miles from the Marquesas Islands to Kaua`i almost 1500 years ago. Hear the legends and learn about the flora and fauna of Kauai`s most sacred area.

Secret Falls (Uluwehi Falls)

After hiking 1 1/2 miles through the rain forest our guides will take clients to Secret Falls also known as Uluwehi Falls. This beautiful waterfall cascades 110 feet into a refreshing swimming hole, where they can go for a dip and enjoy a terrific lunch! You will then hike 1 1/2 miles back to your kayak (3 miles of hiking round trip). TRAIL CONDITIONS CAN VARY DEPENDING ON WEATHER. THERE WILL BE 4 RIVER CROSSINGS WITH LOOSE ROCKS IN RIVER BED THAT YOU WILL NEED TO CROSS AND UNPAVED TRAIL ON YOUR TREK TO THE WATERFALL. AND KEEP IN MIND YOU WILL CROSS THEM ON THE TREK BACK AS WELL. FOOTWEAR IS COMPLETELY SUBMERGED IN WATER DURING YOUR ADVENTURE. Bring Closed Toed Shoes / Reef shoes / Teeva Style Sandals

Wonderful athletic 2 mile kayak in and over 1 mile muddy river side hike into a 120 foot waterfall and swimming pool! Anya our guide was superb and quite knowledgeable about Hawaiian history as well as flora and fauna. A must do half day adventure!

Beautiful scenery, calm river for kayaking, and a great waterfall. Tour was expected to last 5 hours and ended up being almost 7 hours due to presence of small children and only one guide for 13 people. Would have been better if there was a second guide to pace the family with young children.

Thank you for coming out with us at Rainbow Kayak Tours, and taking a moment to share your experience with us. The duration of our tour is based on the ability of each individual, which we do not observe til actual time of activity. Unfortunately guests are not screened based on age. Also just a reminder June-September is our summer high season when a large percentage of our guests are families. Once again thank you for joining us. We hope you have a fabulous day!

You will kayak through a magical river to a secret waterfall and back. The effort level is medium and there is no danger. Very good for family and everyone.
