Kamalo Wharf

Don't Swim, Just Look



Address:
Hwy 450
(Mile Marker 10)
Kaunakakai, HI 96784

Description

This place is of fairly great historical significance. Prior to the move of the shipping community to Kaunakakai Wharf, its natural harbor facilities were used often. It doesn't serve much of a purpose anymore, but local and tourist families occasionally come by to picnic or take walks. The views of dormant Kamakou Volcano are stunning. Note: DO NOT swim in this harbor; it's a very popular hangout for sharks.
