Nu‘Uanu Pali — Attraction in Honolulu

There is parking. To all who has children/toddlers and this is from someone who grew up on this island and was taught this about age 4 " never go up into the wind, for the wind God will left you up into the valley and we'll never see you again ". There's a wall which blocks you from the edge of the mountain. By putting your lite weight child on top of it without holding them back and as Strong as the wind is they can fall down/over. For what ever reason you choose to not or hold them tightly and they ask why, again the wind is Strong. First take the time to read the history of the view of long ago which was filled with such beauty which was pleasing to the wind. But as time went by the view started to change.

There is a small parking fee of around 3 bucks, and well worth it. We had to make a second trip to the lookout before we left the island and it was just as enjoyable the second...

Always a nice place to setup when you're on the Pali. Came here on my birthday and it was pretty spooky so early in the morning... Usually you're greeted with an immediate buffer of intense wind rush at you that you feel you could be blown away... That morning it was as still as death, and looming in the air were thick, cold tufts of mist hanging in the air. It was so surreal! I came here just a couple weeks earlier than that and it was pouring like mad. You couldn't see around you because of all the rain. Both times, this place was so empty. Nobody there. So, so, so weird and creepy, but it was...
