Waikanaloa Wet Cave's Mysticism

155 Words1 Page

Waikanaloa Wet Cave is located on the north side of Kauai directly off of Highway 560. There has been some debate that the name of this cave was erroneously switched with the wet cave farther off the road called Waikapala’e. There is also a nearby dry cave called Maniniholo. Hawaiians believe that the fire goddess, Pele, gifted these caves to her lover but she later abandoned them when they became filled with water.

There is parking conveniently located next to the Waikanaloa Wet Cave’s entrance. Swimming is strictly prohibited as there is risk of leptospirosis and other bacteria. The cave is conveniently located near Ha’ena State Park which is an ideal place for snorkeling and hiking.
