For a unique experience at Kilt Rock and Mealt Falls, visit during the early morning hours. The eastern-facing cliffs are illuminated by the rising sun, enhancing the vibrant colors of the basalt columns and providing optimal lighting for photography. Additionally, arriving early helps you avoid the peak tourist crowds that gather later in the day.
