Love hiking? Then you should not miss one of Oahu's magnificent state park, Ka Iwi State Scenic Shoreline. Found on the southeast part of Oahu, along the Kalanianaole Highway (Hwy 72), the trail is about a mile (one way), which leads to the historical Makapu'u Lighthouse, and occasional sightings of the humpback whales. The Makapu'u Lighthouse was built in 1909 and became automated in 1974. Between November-May each year, as many as 10,000 humpback whales migrate to Hawaii to mate and give birth.
Tips: Bring your own refreshments but don't drink too much because there are no bathrooms. Parking spaces are quite limited so it's better to start early. The fun part, no admission! Open daily, 7:00 am- 6:00 pm.
