Book Direct for Kulaniapia Falls Day Pass Here
Our family was hesitant to book this day pass at first based on the price and not knowing what to expect. We loved our experience, hence we’re recommending it!
Everyone down at the swimming hole enjoyed the private waterfall swim, taking the kayaks and standup paddle boards (SUPs) out on the water, and relaxing with their picnic lunches.
Explore 40+ acres of natural beauty and Hawaii’s largest privately accessible waterfall, just 15 minutes from Hilo! Enjoy miles of nature trails, bamboo gardens, and swim, kayak and/or paddleboard under a 120 foot waterfall (river safety conditions permitting). Your booking includes access to the property and trails. When river conditions are safe for swimming, you may also rent kayaks and paddle boards (it’s still an amazing experience, even if they are not).
You booking also includes a DISCOUNT on our other experiences, like Waterfall Rappelling, Cooking Class, Farm Tour and more. You will receive information about how to book additional experiences using this discount in your email confirmation. You may cancel up to 48 hours in advance for any reason, including none of your desired additional activities being available on the day you plan to visit.
Please bring everything you will need to enjoy your day, such as water, lunch, bathing suit, towel, etc. We do not have any food / beverage service onsite, unless you are joining our cooking class or you prebook a grab and go lunch by 8pm the night before (details in confirmation email).
You must purchase a daypass in advance. We do not allow walkups, and you will not be provided access to the property without an advance booking.
