    Tips

    April 5, 2024

    This is the highest point along the Makapu'u Point Trail — a superb vantage point for taking in views of Koko Head, Koko Crater, and offshore islets that serve as wildlife sanctuaries for Hawaiian seabirds. You can also see the red roof of the historic Makapu'u Lighthouse below you. The lighthouse itself was built back in 1909, and is unfortunately off-limits for visitors.
