ʻOheʻo Gulch is located within the Kipahulu District of Haleakalā National Park on Maui's southeast side. It is about 10 miles (16 kilometers) south of Hana along the Hāna Highway (Road to Hana). The parking lot for the pools is near mile marker 42 on the ocean side of the highway.
No, swimming is not allowed in the pools at ʻOheʻo Gulch. They were closed after a rock slide and determined to be unsafe, so they are now closed to swimming. The area is still worth visiting for its beauty and ocean views. Stay aware of any warnings of flash floods during the rainy season.
If you want to hike to ʻOheʻo Gulch, you can take the short Kuloa Point Trail to reach the falls. Those looking for a longer hike can tackle the 4-mile (6.4-kilometer) round-trip Pipiwai Trail that leads to Waimoku Falls and offers stunning rainforest views along the way.
The dry season (from April through October) is the ideal time to visit ʻOheʻo Gulch, as you'll have the best trail conditions. Arrive early in the day, no matter when you visit, so that you'll have easier access to parking and less chance of the rainstorms that often arrive by afternoon.
