Easily the spot with the best views . It's constantly evolving through each day. Ample parking and not crowded even when tour buses come. Don't miss a stop here! Say hi to the wild chickens and cats

Pamela Magat

Military and locals are free! Make sure you bring your id! Also, don't wear hats, dresses , and anything that will go flying. It can get really windy . Wear appropriate shoes theres a nice walking trail

Tomiana DeBellis

Nice scenic stop on a clear day. Read about the battle that happened here and the warriors Kamehameha forced off the cliffs.

Tamas Dober

We had to learn to visit this in the morning - in Feb & March it was usually raining in the afternoon - and yes, it is definitely on the windward side of Oahu..:)

By far the most gorgeous view I've seen in Oahu! Worth the price of a rental car just to drive the Pali and see these amazing views of mountains and ocean.

Damian Bayona

Beautiful views though the weather may not always cooperate. A little windy but good views of the island sans Honolulu

Chris Raghoobar

It gets super windy , but not enough to keep you from enjoying the breathtaking view .

If you're a Hawaii resident, you don't have to pay the $3 parking fee. Don't leave valuables in car -- lots of break-ins happen here!
