Makapu’u Beach on Oahu’s windward side.
No choking emissions from this wave riding vehicle. Alternative energy. Ocean power. No planet polluting hydrocarbons at work here. Just clean fresh air. Our oceans when harnessed correctly will provide all the energy sources man requires. It can be used to generate electricity and as I speak a plan is being realized to provide downtown Honolulu office buildings with airconditioning from the cold deep pacific ocean.

Located below Makapu’u Point, a portion of land marking Hawaii’s easternmost tip. This is a very popular beach for bodysurfing. Rabbit Island and Flat Island sit just offshore and makes this beach a picturesque beauty. High surf, fierce shore break, and strong undertoe often occur during the winter months which can make this beach a hazardous place Nikon D90 As is / Nikkor lens 18-200 VR

FEATURED IN HAPPY HAVEN Makapu’u Lighthouse is in Waimanalo and was established in 1909 on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. It is still in operation today, owned by the coast guard and not open to the public. The trail is an easy gradual climb 1.4 miles long and is best done in the early part of the day which makes for some spectacular sunrise views Nikon D90 / Nikkor 18-200 VR Lens Please View Larger
