Lipoa Point Hike: Video of the Day


Video of the Day:
Hiking Lipoa Point & visiting Nekita's memorial.

Our dog Nekita passed away unexpectedly last year.  It was extremely difficult for all of us.  It has now been just over a year.  To honor her this year, I bought a rose on the anniversary of her death that we kept in the house, then dried.  When the time was right, the family and I took the rose to Lipoa Point where we spread her ashes.  This was one of Nekita's favorite places to hike and it will always hold a special place in my heart.

This hike is through the old Pineapple fields.  It is just past Honolua Bay.  There is a dirt road referred to as the Surfers Road.  If you take that road all the way to the end, there is the start of a trail that goes along the ocean through the old pineapple fields.  It is amazingly beautiful and a great place to hike and then watch an amazing sunset.

Video Adventure: Launiupoko hike, south side.


Video of the Day:
Hiking the trail in Launiupoko, south side.

This trail starts a little ways past the round-about on mountain side of Kai Hele Ku Street. The trail goes both north and south.  On this hike, we went south.
If you wish to try this hike, be sure to go on an overcast day.  The hike is very hot and has no shade along the way.  Be sure to wear sunblock (even if it is cloudy or overcast) and bring PLENTY of water!  It is a beautiful path with stunning views.
