Best places: Scenic spots in Kahaluu-Keauhou CDP, United States

Scenic lookout with striking views & access to a steep path leading to a black sand beach.

👍👍 Pulled off here to overlook the crazy surfers down below waiting to catch a wave, and was treated to the Hawaii Fire Department running rescue drills with two different helicopters dropping jet skis and rescue divers into and retrieving from the ocean. Very brave professional group of folks. The vie...

👍 Located right next to the highway, one needs to be careful while making the turns. The parking is limited but the views are absolutely stunning. We were lucky enough to spot two whales during our visit. The best time to visit would be during sunrise or sunset .

This scenic overlook offers a sweeping view of the Kalaupapa Peninsula & the ocean beyond.

👍👍 Southern most spot and probably one of the most beautiful spots in the US. This is a must stop on the Big Island. Do yourself a favor and take some time to sit quietly and take it all in. It can be a little crowded up top by the cliffs and diving stand, but not many people actually walk down to the...

👍👍 I feel this is important, especially for people with a concern for their personal walking ability to the lava viewing area Keanakako'i Overlook. The hike is not difficult, however it's about a mile out to the viewing area Keanakao'i Overlook. Parking is at the Devastation Trail parking lot. from the...

👍👍 Beautiful view. Tourism ruins everything though so there's a ton of trash up there. People are gross. Pick up your trash and stop breaking bottles.

Series of waterfalls that tumble over forested rocks into a pool, with roadside lookouts.

This upscale eatery in the Fairmont features a seafood-driven menu & lush garden setting.

Picturesque lookout point offering sweeping views of the ocean, sunset & passing whales.

👍👍 Nice view there’s no trail to get there! It’s next to the parking lot!

Scenic hiking area in a national park with volcanic gases & steam rising up from underground.

👍👍 Beautiful spot, worth stopping by. Lighthouse is nothing special but the views are incredible all around. On a clear day you can see across to Kalo’olawe. A small path leads you down to a secluded tide pool and jaggged coastline with unreal rock formations, but don’t go down when the tide is high or...

👍👍 If you are in a sunny day. Stop. It is a must for taking pictures and relaxing your mind and body. Parking space is very limited. The weather and landscape are the perfect match you would remember it for the rest of your life.

🫤 i must preface what i am to write be stating this usually is my most favorite view to catch on island (5 stars). in the past 3 years or so, the overlook seems to have been overcome by many trees, limiting the normal expansive view. You can't currently see Halape even anymore. Additionally, the ro...
