Travel with
the island’s premier eco-tour company on an exciting journey of discovery to
the famous North Shore of Oahu. Driving over the Ko’olau Mountains to the
windward side, our first stop is the fabled Valley of the Temples where we
visit the picturesque Byodo Temple located at the base of stunning 2000 foot
lush green cliffs.
Then we
drive along the scenic shores of Kahana Bay arriving at Laie Point, a great
location to observe several native plant and seabird species. Continuing North
to Kahuku, we visit several shrimp farms to see endangered wetland birds,
including the Black-neck stilt, Hawaiian coot and Moorhen. Our next stop is
the world famous Sunset Beach and Banzai Pipeline where incredible waves
thrill viewers, especially between November and April. Hale O Lono heiau, one
of Oahu's best preserved ancient temples is next. Situated inside the lush
Waimea Valley, this unique archeological site is an excellent place to learn
about Hawaiian native religion.
At Turtle
Beach we stop to observe rare green sea turtles resting on the golden sand.
Traveling South we arrive at the colorful and historic village of Haleiwa,
home to many surfers, artists and craftspeople. After driving through
extensive pineapple fields we arrive at the historic Dole Plantation. On the
way towards Pearl Harbor your nature guide will show you the location of the
mysterious and sacred Kukaniloko Birthing Stones, "Hawaii’s Stonehenge", where
royal chiefs of the islands were born for over 800 years.
