Waipio Valley Lookout
Admission includedStanding at the Waipio Valley Lookout, the landscape opens before you in a way that stops you mid-step. Sheer green cliffs drop nearly 2,000 feet to a valley floor threaded with taro fields, wild horses, and a winding river meeting the sea. The Waipio Valley Lookout rewards even a brief stop with one of the most dramatic panoramas on the Big Island. The black sand beach below and the distant shimmer of Hi'ilawe Falls make this a place that stays with you long after you leave.
