Adventure - Makapuu Point and Lighthouse

I hate to admit, but Saturday (4/19/2014) was the first time I went to the Lighthouse since moving to Hawaii in 2003.  I had seen it from a sail boat but always wanted to be closer.

There are so many great hikes on Oahu. Problem is, some of the best ones are illegal and on private property! I am not one to do things illegally unfortunately.

There were a number of locals and tourists taking advantage of the sweeping views that this hike has to offer.  It is a gradual incline the whole way up, really working out the legs, but not difficult.  At only 2 miles (round trip), there is a lot to see, with a different view of the east side of the island, and not strenuous.  
It wasn't the best weather for pictures with heavy clouds but it was cool.  The wind was very gusty and echoed in my ears.  At times it was so windy that I found myself walking at a tilt to help me walk straight.

This is definitely a hike that I will be doing more often, as many srem to do. It would be great any evening just to get some exercise, fresh air and just to appreciate Hawaii and all of its beauty.  

What is your favorite hike?  I would greatly appreciate suggestions for (legal) hikes in Hawaii (Oahu or any island). 

Best, 

MJ
