Get to Supai by helicopter or by hiking. The beautiful Havasu falls are located deep in the Supai village. Though it can be challenging to get to Supai, it is well worth it to enjoy the gorgeous views. Many go to Havasupai for cliff jumping, swimming, camping and just relaxing.

You can stay at a lodge in Supai or you can camp along the Havasu creek. I chose to take the helicopter to Supai and stayed at the lodge. All of the options above are great, but you simply must visit this place to see it for yourself!!
