The google map satellite view of this part of Hawaii does not zoom in far enough to see the beauty of this part of Hawaii (August 2007). The view from here is stunning, but in this picture looks a little poor because of the numerous cars parked beside the road. I would love to have had more time to explore this part of Hawaii further and walk in the valleys and see the waterfalls. It s famous and has been used in numerous films.

Pololu Valley Lookout - Hawaii Island visitor guide showing a virtual tour of 'Pololu Valley Lookout' linked to an interactive map with local and travel information. 360° panoramas from Hawaii.

Panorama from the Pololu Valley Lookout on Hawaii Island. This lookout is at the end of the H270 road (Koekea Beach Road). Pololu Valley is the western end of about 8 miles of coastline on the northern end of Hawaii that covers numerous deep lush valleys and ends with Waipio Valley and Waipio Bay at the eastern end. The area is broken up into numerous forest reserves and access is by foot only for the most part.

Travel and Getting There:
Take the H19 (north from Kailua-Kona) to Kawaihea and Spencer Beach Park. Then take the H270 for about 30 miles through Kapa'au to the very end close to Keokea Beach Park and Keokea Bay.
