Nice lookout. It's an impressive valley. But it is not allowed to go down into the valley. The valley should be preserved as a "native" thing, a sacred "mystical" place for native Hawaiians. Local residents told me that this is an issue between local residents and their native home community. Residents (and certainly also tourists) have not really been wanted in the "sacred" valley for some time. Some "non-native residents" aren't really amused by this conflict because they no longer have access to the beach there and it was the only one in a major coastal area. The way down is marked with signs like falling rocks...to discourage tourists. The way down was at the day of our visitation also secured by a security guard. I heard that the youth enjoyed and grewed up, surfed and play togerher at this beach in former days. Currently they don't.

I would personally recommend "as a tourist" to take some pictures from the impressive viewpoint, respect their country below and stay away. Support the locals! I hope residents and natives they find a good solution for the beach/land in near future.
