About the wainiha river
The Wainiha River is located on the north shore of the island of Kauai, Hawaii. The river is approximately 7 miles long and has a rich history dating back to ancient Hawaiian times, where it was used for fishing and transportation. Today, the river is used for both agricultural and recreational purposes. The Wainiha Powerhouse is a hydroelectric power plant that was built in the early 1900s, and is still in operation today. The river is also used for irrigation of taro farms and other crops in the surrounding area. There are no dams on the Wainiha River, however, it does have several reservoirs, including the Wainiha Reservoir and the Lumahai Reservoir, which both provide water for the surrounding farmland. The river is popular among kayakers and hikers, who can explore its scenic beauty and lush surroundings.
