As you walk up the fist part of the trail you will be able to see Koko Head Crater on the left and Sandy Beach.
Notice Ximena's new shoes....
|
The first part of the trail is easy to walk and the whole trail is paved. the area is semiarid with little vegetation and almost no tree cover. So bring a hat and plenty of sunscreen. |
|
|
When you reach the first bend on the trail, lookout towards the southeast and on a good day you should be able to see some of the neighboring islands of Oahu.
|
By now the gentle trade winds should be a welcome relief from the first part of the trail. Continue up the trail and you will find two lookout platforms. |
|
|
From here you will have a beautiful view of Rabbit Island, Makapu'u Point Lighthouse and Makapu'u Beach Park. |
|
The views are worth the walk. |
Time to the top of trail is around one hour at a leisurely pace. |

The Makapuu Tide Pools are in our plans for a future hike.... :) |
