Akaka Falls
‘Akaka Falls, is a 442 ft. tall waterfall. ‘Akaka is the Hawaiian name for this feature. “‘Akaka” means “A rent, split, chink, separation; to crack, split, scale”. The accessible portion of the park lies high on the right shoulder of the deep gorge into which the waterfall plunges, and the falls can be viewed from several points along a loop trail through the park. Also visible from this trail is Kahūnā Falls.

Tips:
The sign says “no swimming,” but you can hike down the gorge and traipse around the rocks and things. The water isn’t swift at all down there, so if you take a plunge, perhaps nobody will mind.
Oh, and please refrain from the “caca” jokes. Especially in the same day as seeing Pe’e Pe’e Falls.
