Manawaiopuna Falls (colloquially known as Jurassic Falls) is a privately owned waterfall in the Hawaiian Islands, located in Hanapepe Valley on Kauai Island. It is 122 metres (400 ft) tall. It was featured in the background of several scenes in the 1993 Steven Spielberg film Jurassic Park. The waterfall is only accessible by helicopter.
“Na Pali” means “the cliffs” or “many cliffs” in Hawaiian, and from Ke’e Beach on the north shore to Polihale State Park on the west side of the island, sea cliffs soar to incredible heights. These cliffs stretch thousands of feet into the air and are second in height only to the sea cliffs of Moloka’i. Na Pali Coast is located on the North-west side of Kaua’i. It is nearly inaccessible, except by boat or helicopter. Often regarded as the most beautiful portion of Hawaii, this 17-mile stretch of coastline is a must-see for residents and visitors alike. Deep and narrow hanging valleys with roaring waterfalls that flow into the sea complete the coastal view that will steal your breath away.
