South Lanai
This small lava rock outcropping is located at
the southern tip of Lanai near the ancient
village of Kaunolu. The area is well
known for its excellent fishing and small tidepools
can be seen surrounding the rocks. The highest sea
cliffs on Lanai are also located along this coast.

Nearby is Kahekili's
Leap. This rock ledge is where the soldiers
of King Kamehameha the Great proved their bravery
by diving from the cliff into the rocky waters below.
