"Seeking Sunrise and Sunset on Foot You are lucky the sun only rises and sets once a day on Hawaii—otherwise, you’d spend all of your time transfixed by the horizon. Hike to the leeward (eastern) side of any island on a clear evening and train your eye over the ocean in search of the “green flash,” an optic phenomenon in which a green sliver of light hovers in the wake of the setting sun. (On Oahu, the remote Kaena Point is a good spot to see the flash.) Sunsets on Kauai, “The Garden Island,” make the beauty of the coastal surroundings even more poignant. If you rise early and tackle the Lanikai Pillboxes trail on Oahu or summit the volcano at Haleakala National Park on Maui, you'll experience an unforgettable morning as the sun rises over the ocean for a new day."

Beautiful view. This mountain top has always been sacred Hawaiian land. There is mana there so be respectful. It was the place where they grew sweet potatoes for the King and his people. The name means " Hill of the rolling sweet potatoes". King Kamehameha's favorite place on Oahu.

Definitely a great place for sightseeing, you get so much view of the city. I am excited we made it up there for some family pictures.

Beautiful sights and awesome atmosphere especially if your touring the island or going out on a date. Parking is limited at the lookout itself, with 1 handicap stall and roughly 7ish regular stalls HOWEVER there is an option to park at the open lot only a few minutes before the lookout.

You can see whole town of Honolulu and diamond head from this Pu’u Ualaka’s State Park. It’s amazing.

Absolutely breathtaking lookout. Please use caution while driving up and down as road is very narrow. Respect the local residents!

From here a good view opens up, Honolulu at a glance. But be careful, a local man warned that they could open the car, breaking the windows and steal all the contents. This place is free and there is parking.

Beautiful overlook of urban Honolulu and Mānoa Valley. Rainbows are common over Mānoa Valley. UofH is visible also at opening of valley. Informative signage interprets what you are viewing. Watch for a mongoose viewing, I see one almost every time. Lock your vehicle.
