Naha Beach, Hawaii, United States

End of the road

Naha is the area at the end of the road the goes along the eastern (Maui-facing) shore of Lanai. If you go there's a good chance you won't see anyone else around. There are a couple of interesting things to see. One is the remains of an old Hawaiian fishpond out in the water. Look for a large circle of rocks extending from the shore - it's fairly easy to spot. (I posted a photo.) The other is an old Hawaiian stone paved path/road. To see this you have to hike a very short distance (five minutes or so) from the end of the road and angle uphill a little. It should be fairly obvious that it is a man-made path of stones fitted together. It seems to extend maybe a quarter of a mile up the slope before it gets harder to follow. (I also posted a photo of this.) There are nice views of Maui from up on the slope - you might even see the ferry that goes back and forth from Lahaina.

    End of the Road
    First you need a few dry days. Then, you need a jeep. Naha Beach is the end of the road, so give yourself at least an hour and 15 to get there. The old fisherman trail at the end of the beach is interesting to see, knowing that it is very old and still functional for the adventuress. Coming back from Naha are several interesting sites and beaches. Be sure to stop at the old "Club Lana'i" - a ghost resort that has been closed for 20 years or so. Also, the freshly restored church along the way is worth stopping and looking in on. Just watch the wasps nests above the front door! They won't sting you, but I wouldn't linger under them for too long! The little trail across the road has some points of interest - the remains of the old boat that used to bring workers over from Maui, and an old stone bread oven, still in fine shape back in the woods.

    it could be a dream location if people didn't leave their garbage behind
    if you can ignore that you will love the sand and the views. It's a dead end; no facilities. Bring all of your stuff since it's a long way in by jeep only
