Farrington Highway, Northwest O'ahu
Ka'ena Point State Park is an 853-acre strip of land that wraps around the 9-mile western point of O'ahu between Dillingham Airfield and Makua Military Reservation. This undeveloped nature preserve is home to numerous seabirds and rare native plants. Hiking to the point provides wonderful views of the north and south coastlines of the island. Hawaiian folklore states that Ka'ena Point was the "jumping off" place for souls leaving this life.
