Waimoku Falls

Waimoku Falls in high flow


Situated at the head of Ohe'o Gulch, the 400ft Waimoku Falls dwarfs hikers who have made it to the end of the Pipiwai Trail. While most of Maui's waterfalls are tiny or has miniscule flow, this one is legitimate. It's probably the tallest falls on Maui that you can see without a helicopter.

The boulders srewn about the base of the falls is evidence of the constant danger of rock falls so I wouldn't recommend swimming here. Still, this is a very popular spot regardless of the dangers. I certainly hope this waterfall doesn't close permanently like the Sacred Falls in Oahu if a rock fall event occurs.
