The Waimea Canyon, sometimes called the Grand Canyon of the Pacific, offers several overlooks with spectacular views, a great small rest stop, a waterfall, and hiking trails for those who are so inclined. We visited a couple of weeks ago, and I remembered I intended to write a related post when I saw the photo of our license plate in my photo collection. You have to sign in ($10 per car and $5 per visitor) and get a little pass to place on your dashboard. The pass must include your license number, I suppose, so you cannot pass it on to someone else when you leave. You learn to take a photo of your rental car's license plate before you head to pay, so you don't have to walk back to your car when you are told you need the license plate number.
