Highway 450
East Molokai

This scenic 28-mile drive from Kaunakakau to Halawa Valley affords numerous historic and scenic sites. Fishponds scallop the south coastline, deserted beaches dot the shore, rocky headlands interspersed by manicured farmlands wind and twist along the road to the valley.

 
 
And, as a grand finale, the beautiful Halawa Bay, Moa'ula Falls, and Hipuapua Falls await you.
 
 
The road is very windy starting around the 15-mile marker and becomes extremely narrow for the last few miles. Close to the end it becomes a dirt road and finally stops at Halawa Beach Park.
 
 

Useful Information:

  • Beautiful and unusual scenery, excellent photo opportunities
  • Drive slow - the road is very windy and narrow toward the end
  • Fill up with gasoline prior to leaving Kaunakakau as there are no gas stations along this road
  • Bring drinks and snacks as there are few stores along the way
 
  DIRECTIONS:
