This is the view from the bench at the top of the Alakaha ramp on the 1871 Trail, which heads south from Pu’uhonua o Hōnaunau National Historical Park. There was big surf on this day and the trail was getting regular clouds of spray from the breaking waves.
The bench though, sits above all that and also offers some shade. What’s not to like!


I’ll meet you there, Graham. What a wonderful spot!

It really does look inviting – particularly the colour of the water. Although that big dip you’ve caught will need some careful negotiating

Actually, those big swells are OK unless you’re too close to shore. Then you’re in trouble!

I hike that trail just for the bench. It’s only about a mile in so not a strenuous hike either.
