卡勞帕帕觀景點位於1600英尺高的懸崖的邊緣,將卡勞帕帕半島的美景盡收眼底。由於沒有植被的阻擋,你可以清楚地看到這裏的地形。沿着海拔1700英尺的小徑一路走下來,會感到非常有成就感。這裡有標牌為你介紹下方的重要景點以及卡勞帕帕的歷史。從觀景台上還能看到考哈科火山口,這是一座休眠火山,火山口內有一片超過800英尺深的小湖泊。火山口高400英尺,是卡勞帕帕半島的較高點。陸地北端聳立着一座燈塔。如今,這裏衹裝有一個電燈。再往前走,可以看到一條若有若無的小道,上面鋪滿了柔軟的硬木針葉。這條小道對角線穿過一片20世紀30年代栽種的樹林,樹林是當年公共資源保護隊植樹造林時栽下的。

The views of the ocean, town and mountainside were simply amazing. The waves and their sound even from this distance called out the power of the ocean. Overall a wonderful experience.
A must do.
Unfortunately the colony is closed at this time. Hopefully it will be re-opened but who knows when. This was our reason for coming to Molokai. When it does reopen we will just fly in for the day. T...
