OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Rugged,
dangerous, exciting - pictures cannot depict
the utter beauty of the landscape and
awesome power of the ocean seen along the
East Coast of O'ahu. The soft volcanic ash
that fell millions of years ago when Diamond
Head and Koko exploded is like modeling clay
for the waves that crash against this coast
creating an eerie, stair-step sculpture.
There are several lookouts and hikes along
the coastal mountains that afford a dramatic
view of the entire East Coast. Due to
offshore reefs and volcanic tubes, the waves
crash against the shoreline ferociously all
year long.
This is a popular area for whale watching
from December through April as the humpback
whales travel the channel. Body surfers
enjoy "catching a wave" and can be spotted
on their boards any hour of the day. |
