The view of the coast from the south side of the hill we were climbing. Note all of the black lava rock.

If you look closely, you can see the island of Molokai rising out of the - ocean on the horizon about 40 miles away.  Look right below the clouds. We saw several whales not too far from shore. We then found this sign along the trail. The trail climbed along the back side of the hill through lava rock. Flowers seen along the trail. Can you spot Bill among the cactus?
We spot the lighthouse, but the main trail continues to climb above it.  The trail to the lighthouse is closed. The lighthouse is located on a rocky point, as you can see here from the top of the hill. A close up shot of the lighthouse. The view from the top of the hill looking back toward Sea Life Park and Makapuu Beach. A wide shot of the coast and islands.  Look at the color of the water!  It's absolutely beautiful! We ate our lunch at the top of the hill and were joined by this red headed bird. - Is it a Cardinal? He's got a potato stick that Larry had dropped.
