Manoa Falls

In the heart of the island of Oahu, close to Waikiki, one of the most important natural areas in Hawaii is located, and it's known as Manoa Falls. It's a completely natural park, fresh and full of vegetation. The air that you get in that place penetrated your lungs with a freshness and smoothness which internally cleans and purifies. Furthermore, different movie scenes have been shot here, huge box-office successes such as Jurassic Park, amongst others.

A green world in all its splendour is what people visiting Manoa Falls can appreciate panoramicaly, since, regardless of the angle in which a photo is taken, it always comes out in high quality, with an intense and revitalising shade of green.

How to get to Manoa Falls

Getting to this majestic, natural work of art is really easy because you can get there in a private car or take public transport from the beach, and it's located only some minutes away from Waikiki beach. From the first moment that you step on the firm ground in this marvellous place, a positive energy invades your whole body, mind and spirit. Mother Earth connects with each visitor in a unique way, internally recharging and balancing you.

What are the main things to do at Manoa Falls?

Visitors can find a large amount of ecological paths, some which are longer and more demanding than others, those which take you to different landscapes and ambiences, however they all have something which make them unique: the nature and the magnitude of colours, shapes and smells can be detected on each one of them. The walks and the paths have different difficulty levels, according to the preference of each person, although the majority of them come to the same exit point.

It turns out that the longest path in the park lasts for 45 minutes and it involves climbing a mountain where you can enjoy an amazing view of the island. This walk is worth doing if adventure and a good and varied photographic scene is what you're looking for. The long and high branches are very characteristic. It's a real challenge to be amongst living being that mark our journey, whilst they accompany us and recharge us energetically.

During the different walks, it's very possible to find areas of bamboo and jungle in abundance, which can be rotten or living, whilst other areas are so full of weeds and danger that you are restricted to the entrance of these places. There is also free access to different waterfalls which can be found in between the paths. Visitors can enjoy a refreshing natural dip if they wish, feeling cold water which comes from the highest point of the mountain, running all over your body, revitalising and rejuvenating you. It's a great feeling and a pure touch with what nature has to offer you. Magic moments deserve to be lived to the fullest and have awareness.

It's advisable to bring a good quantity of water with you so you can keep yourself hydrated, (there are public zones where you can buy refreshments along the walks) as well as bringing a top-up of mosquito repellent and and a light bag so you can avoid tiring yourself out and so you can walk around freely. It's advisable to do this throughout the day because there are a lot of outside activities to participate in and enjoy.
