ʻAkaka Falls State Park is a state park on Hawaiʻi Island, in the US state of Hawaii. In this park which
is located along the northeastern Hamakua Coast, there are two gorgeous
waterfalls which can be seen on one short hike - Kahūnā
Falls and ʻAkaka Falls. This State Park is a lush
rainforest filled with wild orchids, bamboo groves and draping ferns.
‘Akaka Falls which is
perhaps Hawaii Island's most famous waterfall, plummets 442-feet (135 metres)
into a stream-eroded gorge. The stream is called Kolekole stream. 'Akaka means
"a rent, split, separation, or crack" in the Hawaiian language.
