Nohkalikai Falls

The name 'Nohkalikai' translates to 'Jump of Kalikai' and is associated with a tragic legend. Local folklore tells the story of a woman named Ka Likai, who remarried after the death of her husband. Over time, she found that she did not have enough time to take care of her child. The second husband, out of jealousy, killed the child and cooked her meat and served it to the mother. Ka Likai unknowingly ate the meat. After searching for her child, she found the child's fingers in a basket. Distraught and overwhelmed with grief and guilt, she jumped off the cliff, giving the waterfall its name. While the historical accuracy of the legend is debated, it remains an integral part of the local culture and adds a poignant layer to the natural beauty of the falls.
