It's beautiful! About 20 minutes South of Ocean Blue Ohana. Take the Hoapili Trail. Nice hike, take plenty of water, wear good shoes or boots. The beginning part of the trail (about .7 miles) is along the shoreline. Then the trail skirts inland over lava rock. You'll feel like you are back in time, in the middle of nowhere. Go early because it can get hot. Beautiful scenery. You'll probably see a lot of goats. You may see dolphins. It's at the very South end of Maui.
