Fun Facts

The overlook provides a stunning view of the Hanalei Valley, which was featured in the 1958 film 'South Pacific.'

The valley below is home to taro fields, a staple crop in Hawaiian culture, cultivated for over a thousand years.

The area is protected under the Hanalei National Wildlife Refuge, established to preserve native Hawaiian species and habitats.

The refuge is a habitat for the endangered Hawaiian goose, or nēnē, which can often be spotted from the overlook.

The view encompasses lands that are significant to Hawaiian history and mythology, including sites associated with ancient legends.
