Waimea Canyon And Kōkeʻe Tour From O‘ahu Features

Waimea Canyon Kokee Sightseeing Looking View

Waimea Canyon Kokee Sightseeing Overview

See the Spectacular Waimea Canyon

Often called “The Grand Canyon of the Pacific,” Waimea Canyon is located on Kauaʻi's West Side. Although it's not quite as big as the familiar Arizona version, it is still an incredible wonder unique to Hawai‘i and marvelous in its own unique way. The views from the Waimea Canyon Lookout are simply breathtaking - picture buttes, rugged crags, and deep valley gorges for miles on end! The canyon stretches 14 miles long, 1 mile wide, and over 3,600 feet deep. You won't find anything else like this in Hawai‘i!
