The story and Legend. In the land where the sea brushes against the sky, the Dragon's Teeth coastline, renowned for its sharp, dragon-like rock formations, also boasts a unique feature: a vast, ground-level labyrinth, intricately engraved into the earth itself.
This maze, visible from above, weaves between the towering rocks, creating a network of pathways and dead ends. Legend holds that it was formed at the same moment the legendary dragon crashed into the sea, with the force of the impact etching the dragon's final flight path into the ground.
The ground labyrinth, with its complex design, is said to mirror the dragon's wisdom and the tumultuous journey of life. Those who walk its paths often speak of a transformative experience, feeling as if they are retracing the steps of the mythical creature, gaining insights and inner peace.

Definitely recommend for rock and...

It sits peacefully flat among the jagged rocks around it and is a very special place to native Hawaiians. Worth seeing but please be respectful when visiting. The labyrinth was created by rocks that some people kick around as they walk through it.
