Palaoa Point: Lanai - Hawaii

(Leeward) This area is rich in historical and archeological finds. Ancient Hawaiians inhabited this area from the 15th Century until the late 1800's. Remains of the earth that eroded away from the cliffs can be seen as small islands and rock outcroppings off shore. Often tidepools are seen in these areas where the lava lies just below the surface of the water and is partially exposed during low tide.
