Wailua Falls

The double cascade from the opening credits of Fantasy Island — visible from the parking lot.

<p>An 80-plus-foot twin plunge at the end of Maʻalo Road above Līhuʻe, best in morning light or after rain when it thunders. View from the overlook; the informal trails down are dangerous and closed.</p>
