Nuʻuanu Pali is a section of the windward cliff (pali in Hawaiian) of the Koʻolau mountain located at the head of Nuʻuanu Valley on the island of Oʻahu. It has a panoramic view of the windward (northeast) coast of Oʻahu. The Pali Highway (Hawaii State Highway 61) connecting Kailua/Kāneʻohe with downtown Honolulu runs through the Nuʻuanu Pali Tunnels bored into the cliffside.
The area is also the location of the Nuʻuanu Freshwater Fish Refuge and the Nuʻuanu Reservoir in the jurisdiction of the Hawaiʻi Department of Land and Natural Resources.
The Nuʻuanu Pali State Wayside is a lookout above the tunnels where there is a panoramic view of the Oʻahu's windward side with views of Kāneʻohe, Kāneʻohe Bay, and Kailua. It is also well known for strong trade winds that blow through the pass (now bypassed by the Nuʻuanu Pali Tunnels).
The Nuʻuanu Pali has been a vital pass from ancient times to the present because it is a low, traversable section of the Koʻolau mountain range that connects the leeward side of the mountains, Honolulu to the windward side, Kailua and Kāneʻohe. The route drew settlers who formed villages in the area and populated Nuʻuanu Valley for a thousand years.
Oʻahu (pronounced [oˈʔɐhu]) or Oahu /oʊˈɑːhuː/, known as "The Gathering Place", is the third largest of the Hawaiian Islands; however, it is home to about two-thirds of the population of the U.S. state of Hawaii, and is the home of Honolulu International Airport. The state capital, Honolulu, is on Oʻahu's southeast coast. Including small close-in offshore islands such as Ford Island and the islands in Kaneohe Bay and off the eastern (windward) coast, it has a total land area of 596.7 square miles (1,545.4 km2), making it the 20th largest island in the United States. Along with the rest of the Hawaiian Islands, Oahu is one of the largest and northernmost islands of Polynesia.
In the greatest dimension, this volcanic island is 44 miles (71 km) long and 30 miles (48 km) across. The length of the shoreline is 227 miles (365 km). The island is the result of two separate shield volcanoes: Waiʻanae and Koʻolau, with a broad "valley" or saddle (the central Oʻahu Plain) between them. The highest point is Kaʻala in the Waiʻanae Range, rising to 4,003 feet (1,220 m) above sea level.
King Kamehameha was trying to unify the Hawaiian Islands, which brought him to Oʻahu from Hawaii Island to take on King Kalanikūpule. The battle would start on the south side of Oʻahu but would quickly end up at this now scenic lookout visited by many each year. Camera work by Leion Van Osdol (MPI) & Dustin Malama (HNN)

1.5 Million Years ago, a 5000 cubic km piece of NE Oahu Hawaii fell into the sea. This computer simulation models a similar event on today's topography. A mega tsunami over 500 meters tall is produced. Run ups on North America exceed 100 m.
The "Not so Good Hikers" wandered up the Nuuanu Judd Trail to Pauoa Flats and then on to the Nuuanu Overlook. A beautiful well maintained and very safe trail. Novice hikers can enjoy the Judd Memorial Trail at the bottom, and those wanting a little bit more can challenge themselves with the longer trek to the overlook. About 5.6 miles total round trip.

Hawaii (Hawaiian: Hawaiʻi, sometimes pronounced ha-VAI-ee by locals): is the 50th state of the United States of America. Situated nearly at the center of the north Pacific Ocean, Hawaii marks the northeast corner of Polynesia. While it was once a major hub for the whaling, sugar and pineapple industries, it is now economically dependent on tourism and the U.S. military. The natural beauty of the islands continues to be one of Hawaii's greatest assets. Honolulu is the state's capital, largest city, and cultural hub. Hawaiian and English are the official languages of Hawaii.

Short add on to Day 8 Vlog. I didnt realize there was only just a little footage left after our adventures out kayaking in the ocean. But after cleaning up a bit and got to reset ourselves, we went to grab some food at a local spot called Helena's Hawaiian Food. Been here once before and decided to come back to this spot once again because their food is bomb! New discovery on this visit was the signature short ribs! 👌🏾 Check them out: Helena's Hawaiian Food https://www.yelp.com/biz/helenas-hawaiian-food-honolulu After some good eats, decided to walk it off a bit over at Pali Lookout while getting some sightseeing done over the windy valley. New watermark addition to the vlogs "FoodVentures" during some of our food explorations & "WeOutHere" when we go travel someplace. :) Music Used: "...
I knew it was there
Though I tried to hide it
The feeling just kept on shining through
Haven’t known you that long
So I try to deny it
But the feeling was much too
Much too strong
Could this be love
Deep down inside
Tearing me apart
I feel it in my heart
Constantly, you’re on my mind
Thinking about you all the time
I can’t sleep no matter what I do
I just keep on thinking ‘bout you
Why do I feel this way
When I know you have someone
That you’re seeing each and everyday
Should I play this game
Of just being your friend but i know that’s not where I want it to end
How could this be wrong
When it feels so strong
Tearing me apart
I feel it in my heart
No I don’t want to start
No trouble
Between you and I and you lover
But I must tell you what I’m going through
Everytime you walk by
