A woman who was visiting Hawaii with her sister died after being swept downstream during a flash flood while kayaking with a tour group on the island of Kauai.

Nine people including seven visitors and a guide were suddenly swept away with no warning during a flash flood on Wailua River on Saturday night, according to Hawaii News Now.

Everyone was rescued except Aimee Abrahim, 32, of El Cajon, California, whose body was found. Her younger sister, Crystal, survived.

Aimee's body was found Sunday morning. She was a sales representative at Janssen Pharmaceuticals in La Jolla, according to her LinkedIn profile.

The group was with Kayak Wailua tour group company. According to the owner, Peter Fisher, the victim and her sister were swept away as they crossed Uluwehi Falls with a rope around 5pm, according to the outlet.

'This is a situation where it was really freakish because we didn't have any rain. There was no rain on the kayak. There was no rain during the hike,' he said.

'An extremely rare flash flood occurred in the blink of an eye from slow moving shallow water to deep raging water. All kayak companies were operating earlier in the day. The flash flood warning was issued long after the tour commenced,' the company wrote on Facebook.

'It went from a very sunny happy day to a nightmare and you don't really know you try and think the best but sometimes the worst happens,' Fisher told KITV.
