Hiking

3 mike round trip hike to a secluded sandy beach that is close to Aloha Om. The footing is rocky making it a moderate hike. It’s good to check the tide and go around low tide otherwise the beach disappears! There are usually turtles here and the cove is so pretty!

Visit Rainbow falls early to see the rainbow! But from there go to NARNIA! It’s a 2 mike RT walk up an old service road that opens to waterfall pools! NARNIA wasn’t showing up in the search so It’s combined here with rainbow falls. Here is how to get there: GPS 19.7121337-155.1337988 This will bring you to a parking area on your left. Walk up the road an you will come to a mailbox # 2019 on your left and a little side street. At the end of the side street as a gate. Duck under and go up the old service road about 1 mile. There will be a side trail on your left across from a water reserve tank. Take the side trail and it will pop out in Narnia.

Sightseeing

We love these thermal pools especially in the morning. Park opens at 9am and it’s most quiet then! Follow the path that hugs the right side of the old boat ramp and goes into the jungle to find our favorite pool.

An easy and beautiful paved walk through the jungle will bring you to crow the falls. Checkout the goat farm down the road and Sharkeys coffee in town!
