YeeFit Adventures - The Makapu‘u Point trail, within Kaiwi State Scenic Shoreline, offers outstanding views of O‘ahu’s southeastern coastline, including Koko Head and Koko Crater. From the trail’s destination at Makapu‘u Head, one is rewarded with magnificent views of the windward coast and offshore islets, as well as the historic red-roofed Makapu‘u Lighthouse built in 1909, which makes a stunning picture against the deep blue sea below (the lighthouse itself is off-limits). On a clear day, you may even see Moloka‘i and Lana‘i. The trailhead has limited parking, NO RESTROOMS, and garbage/recycling receptacles. The distance is up to you (2.5 miles) with an elevation gain of approximately 500ft. I hope you enjoy this adventure! #Oahu #Hawaii

The short, easy hike is packed with interesting sites and is an ideal choice for keeping young kids engaged.
