North Shore Scouting: La’ie Point

5/3

After a fulfilling lunch at our cottage, we were off for some location scouting.

Driving towards north, we passed by a few potential locations.

No winners here.

So, we kept on driving. We passed by one of the most popular attractions on the island Polynesian Cultural Center but we didn’t pay a visit.

We followed our map and came to La’ie Point (northeastern of Oahu).

La’ie Point

Oh! What a breathtaking sight!

The sky was a little hazy due to volcano eruptions at one of the islands nearby.

Rock arch off La’ie Point

This arch was created by nature in ONE day when tsunami punched a hole through the island in 1946. Talk about the power of nature!

They caught a huge turtle! I am not sure it’s by law or not, they let the turtle go.

This spot is not crowded. It’s free and has great view. No facilities though.

Who knows how long the arch will stay? Enjoy the view before it’s gone.
