Nakalele Blowhole

Trip Stop: 
Narrative: 

Another example of the power of the sea located a short distance after the Olivine Pools on “The Top” of the West Maui peninsula. Like the Olivine Pools, this one too had warning signs to stay back to avoid being sucked in or washed out to sea by an unexpectedly large wave. However, they can still be viewed via a short walk from a roadside pullout, where we watched a tall jet of sea water shoot 50 feet in the air through a hole in a lava shelf.
