The hike to Makapu’u lighthouse is really more of a leisurely stroll, yet it reveals breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean on the South shore of Oahu, Hawaii.
Here are few tips about climbing to the scenic Makapu’u lighthouse point:
- Takes about half an hour to the top
- Walk is on paved path almost like a road
- Makapu’u Lighthouse is at the summit
- Top viewpoint offers incredible views over the Pacific Ocean
- The deep blue waters are a Humpback whale sanctuary
On our hike we were lucky enough to see two Humpback whales, gliding through the water with ease.
