Makapuu Lighthouse Road
Do you like hiking? Hawaii has many great places to hike. The Makapuu Lighthouse Road is the easiest and one of the most beautiful hikes in Oahu. Very close to downtown Waikiki, Makapuu point offers a great view of the sea and sometimes a glimpse of whales. Once used as an Army anti-invasion lookout during World War II, this location has abandoned "pillboxes" and other historical structures. The lighthouse itself makes for a great photo opportunity. The trail starts right off of Highway 72 (Kalanianaole Highway) and is also accessible by public bus #22 from Waikiki. If you need directions by public bus from any other location go to www.thebus.org. Academia students go on hikes with our teachers all the time. If you are interested in hikes with teachers look for the activities calendar at the school, which shows when we will have the next hike. * There are no public restrooms on the trail.
