Prepare for heavy spray
Even on dry days the mist is continuous—use a waterproof case for cameras and a hooded rain jacket; park provides raincoats but a personal dry bag helps.
Wear grippy, waterproof shoes
Paths can be wet and uneven; shoes with good tread reduce slips on basalt and boardwalks.
Time your visit
Early morning or late afternoon reduces crowds and gives the best light on the falls; midday is busiest and often clouded by spray.
Stay behind ropes and follow the guide
The cliff edges and wet rocks are hazardous—follow the guide’s instructions and observe fenced viewpoints to stay safe.
Waterproof jacket or poncho
Lightweight protection against constant spray keeps you comfortable during the walk.
Waterproof phone/camera case
Protects electronics from fine mist and sudden gusts of spray.
Sturdy, grippy shoes
Closed-toe shoes with traction handle wet basalt and boardwalks safely.
Small daypack or dry bag
Keeps personal items dry and frees hands for steadying on slippery sections.
