Havasu Falls

Havasu Falls is a stunning waterfall deep inside the Grand Canyon on the Havasupai reservation. Its bright blue-green water pours over red rock cliffs into a beautiful natural pool.

The waterfall is famous around the world for its dreamy turquoise color against the red canyon walls. Reaching it takes a long hike, which makes the sparkling blue water feel like a hidden treasure.
