Over 100 years ago Mark Twain, first viewed the Waimea Canyon and nicknamed it the "Grand Canyon of the Pacific". Waimea Canyon on Kauai is the largest canyon in the Pacific and is a dramatic sight to behold. The canyon measures 10 miles long, 1 mile wide, and more than 3,500-feet deep. It was carved thousands of years ago by rivers and floods that flowed from Mount Waialeale's summit which receives an average of 440 inches of rain a year, making it the wettest spot on earth.
Detail Description:
The lines in the Waimea Canyon walls depict different volcanic eruptions and lava flows that have occurred over the centuries. Even though it is smaller than the Grand Canyon of Arizona, Waimea Canyon rivals it's beauty. Numerous lookouts and hikes offer terrific views of every aspect of this natural wonder. The elevation of Waimea Canyon makes the air 10-15 degrees cooler than in the valley and by afternoon many areas are often shrouded in clouds.SIGHTSEEING HIGHLIGHTS:Hanapepe LookoutWaimea CanyonSpouting HornSouth coast Poipu Resort drive-throughView Koloa Sugar Mill and Queen Victoria's profile (except passengers from the Poipu area)
