Sometimes you have to get the very cool shot of the lighthouse.

For those unfamiliar with Hawaii’s coastline, it’s mostly made of lava rock which are razor sharp. This also goes for standing close to the waters edge and coastline especially when waves are crashing over rocks. **A Note about Ocean Safety & General PSA**: Please exercise caution around blow holes, do not stand directly on top, for there is a chance of falling in. If you go on a day when it’s flat, there wont be much action at the blow hole at all. It will be easy to spot if the surf is up that day. Once you have arrived down to the bottom, a few steps to your left will be the blow hole. Rubbah slippahs (flip flops) may be humbug (a pain) and cause you to trip or lose your footing. Wearing sneakers, hiking sandals (like Keens), or any type of shoes with good soles and support will be beneficial for you. Most likely you will see people down there, but you will see the gem like green hue of the tide pools from this vantage point.Īs I prefaced before, it requires a little scaling down the rocky cliffside. Here is a view of the tide pools from the access. The access is unmarked, but the Makapu’u tide pools are easy to spot, if you know what to look for. Proceed with your own judgement and honest assessment of your own skill level.Ī selfie with the Lighthouse in the distance, photo taken to the left of the Makapu’u tide pools. Scaling down the cliffside entails sure footing down rocks and loose gravel. I wouldn’t recommend this accent down the cliffside for small children or people with bad knees. This leads down to a collection of beautiful tide pools, and a blow hole that is active when there is high surf/windy days. Located roughly about 80-90% to the top of the switchback paved hike is an access to scale down the lava rock cliffside. This post isn’t about the entire Makapu’u Lighthouse trail, but a bonus adventure located within that hike, Makapu’u Tide Pools. Nearby also features Kokohead, and the famous bodyboarding spot, Makapu’u Beach. The reward of this hike is a sweeping view of the famed lighthouse and scenic Kaiwi shoreline which is located in the southeastern coastline of Oahu. This trail is well groomed, and has been newly renovated with paved roads. The lighthouse was built in 1909, and the overall hike is a roundtrip of 2 miles, with a gain of 500ft in elevation. A famous hike here in Oahu is called the Makapu’u Lighthouse Trail. In the context of adventure and hiking, this trail would be considered twice the bang-for-your-buck. A re you the type of traveler who likes to wander off the well-paved and beaten path?

The Makapuʻu Tide Pools, including a small blowhole, are quite popular and can be found just down from the first set of whale information signs. The Molokaʻi Channel runs right past the Makapuʻu Lighthouse, so this is also a great place to spot whales using on-site telescopes during whale watching season between December and May. Two other smaller islands, Mānana (the larger of the two, also known as Rabbit Island) and Kāohikaipu are also visible just offshore. You can even see the island of Molokaʻi in the distance. This moderately easy hike pays off with breathtaking views of the indigo ocean and Oʻahu’s eastern, or Windward Coast. Renovations were recently made to the lighthouse and the trail was recently repaved and additional lookout points were added. On the eastern most point of Oʻahu sits the Makapuʻu Point Lighthouse, a shining beacon built in 1909 on a 600-foot sea cliff overlooking Makapuʻu Beach-a stretch of sand known as one of Oʻahu’s best bodysurfing beaches-and family-friendly Sea Life Park.įifteen minutes past Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve and beyond Sandy Beach (another popular local beach) you’ll find the large parking lot that leads to the 2-mile paved trail overlooking the lighthouse.

Oahu Day4. I flew Kahana alone this evening, a 30 minute flight and then 15 minutes ground handling. Peaceful except for a helicopter crossing the bay.

Setting up at launch requires good line management. Below is an example of launch ground cover.

Makapuu winds; pilots are flying mini wings there. My 17m didn’t arrive in time for this trip.

CALIFORNIA GLAMPING BUSINESS ACCUSED OF EXPLOITING HAWAI`I

SFGate - June 12, 2022

A luxurious "glamping" company is stirring up controversy in Hawaii’s quiet Waimanalo community, Hawaii News Now reported.  

The outlet says that Glamping Hawaii, which provides a "high-end camping and event experience," has been accused of illegally propping up tents just yards away from homeless families in the county beach park. This controversy comes just after Bill 38 was signed into law, which prohibits most commercial activities like weddings and photo shoots from Waimanalo to Makapuu. Now, the company — which is also run by a group of Californians who recently moved to Hawaii — is reportedly under investigation by the city of Honolulu. 

"This was not just a camping outfit. This was glamping in its full hewa source. I mean, it was a bar, a tall bar, set up with bar stools," Waimanalo Neighborhood Board Member Kapua Medeiros told the outlet.  

According to their website, Glamping Hawaii offers extravagant tent packages that can be outfitted with five-foot-tall teak kitchens, fire pits, and bars for extra fees. Though they don’t list package prices, Hawaii News Now says they cost “several hundred dollars” per night. 

Company representatives told the outlet they didn’t think they were violating the law, stating that patrons are responsible for obtaining camping permits. However, Hawaii News Now says this might also be illegal as permits are not transferable.

Emma Koa, a Waimanalo native and business owner, told the outlet that she confronted the business owners in person and accused them of peddling a “romanticized” version of Hawaii to tourists. (However, company representatives told the outlet that 70% of their clients are locals.)

"We don’t need more people prostituting and exploiting Hawaii and her people and her aina, and the whole paradise depiction of Hawaii," Koa told the outlet. 

"People pay to come and exploit Hawaii and have an authentic Hawaiian experience,” she continues in a recorded video, zooming in on the glampsite. “Meanwhile, right there is the authentic Hawaiian experience,” she says, panning to the homeless encampment. “That’s embarrassing."

One Yelp user, Keks Manera5, left a one-star review admonishing the company's actions. " ... This is such a slap in the face to Native Hawaiians/kanaka Maoli and the local generations that been here for decades who are struggling to survive and get by. ... Hawaiʻi is so over the greed and exploitation of the islands. PACK IT ALL UP ..."

"This is not an attack on commercial activity, but it is a warning, a shoutout to all business owners who are operating on our parks and beaches that you are not welcome here. And we passed a law to cement that," Waimanalo Neighborhood Board Member Kapua Medeiros told Hawaii News Now.

Correction: Since it is about 2 am here in Japan I’ve been up for about 17 hours I am brain dead – so here are the Pearl Harbor pictures I left off the previous days post. Exploring Oahu’s Southeast Coast: We drove along the coast road and enjoyed the ocean and beach views on our way to Halona Blowhole and a hike to see the Makapuu Lighthouse – a 2 mile hike to the eastern most tip of Oahu –…
