Waikahalulu Falls ... June 2,
2016
After our short hike into Alapena Falls,
we drove downtown and visited Waikahalulu Falls.
Our directions indicated that it was on a short dead-end
street in Honolulu. There are botanical gardens at
the locations and parking near the end of the street.
We found the falls. We presume
there were gardens there although they weren't that
impressive. It was more like a park. Maybe
we weren't really at the gardens. The parking was
entirely another story. The street we were on had
no parking signs its entire length. Rather than
parking, we stopped. Marcia stayed with the car.
The falls were within sight of the street so it wasn't
much of a hike.
The next day, we went back to re-take
pictures of some of the waterfalls we had visited the
day before. We came to Waikahalulu to see if there
was better parking on the other side. There
wasn't! However, we later visited the Foster's
Botanical Gardens and when we left there, we discovered
that this waterfall is just behind and upstream from
these gardens. This was not the name of the
gardens promoted at the waterfall so it is still a
mystery. These gardens were very
nice.
