    This hike across the lava to the ocean is so worth it! It only takes about 10 minutes to walk one way, and the various lava rock formations en route are varied and interesting. When we got to the ocean, our breath was taken away by the view! Stunning!

    NOTE: No official bike parking, so we just locked our bikes to the sign.

    This area is where the Kaimu Kapalana New Black Sand Beach Trailhead starts. It is also a great spot to take a break and visit Kaimu Korner Country Store, Uncle Robert's Awa Bar and Farmers Market, and Hannah Blue Boutique. There is a dirt trail that can be taken down to the ocean, but the ocean can also be seen right here from this parking lot, and the sound of the waves can be enjoyed from the road.
