My Hawaii friend first took me to this beautiful spot a few minutes drive, or a short walk by foot from the circle island bus (Get off at the Foodland in Laie by the traffic light, and walk to the ocean). We spend an hour transfixed by the beautiful seascapes and rock formations. We also saw a pod of whales... More

We stopped here on our way to the Polynesian Cultural center, and the short (couple miles) diversion was well worth it.

I loved this spot growing up. The veiw are excellent and when the swell is right, there are great surf break on both sides. Jumping from the cliffs should only be done by people who know the area, the tides, and the wave directions. It can be very dangerous. This place used to be a hidden jem, but more and... More

We decided to check this area out on our most recent visit to Oahu, Our primary reason, to see where they filmed the cliff-jumping scene in the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall, but as soon as we pulled up I couldn't take my eyes off of the view..breathtaking! This was by far, one of the prettiest areas i've seen here yet.... More

This is a beautiful spot to see and watch the surf splashing up on the rock's. You can also see the main highway in the distance and the traffic driving along the coast. The local people spend a lot of time here fishing and visiting with each other. Very well worth the trouble to find this spot. More
