The most breathtaking view on Oahu: The Pali Lookout
Whenever I have first-time friends and family visiting, this is our first stop and though I’ve seen this view countless times since the mid-80s, I’m just as awe-inspired today as I was from the first time I saw it.

A great Hawaii memory for me. I visited it in 1968 while stationed there. Got my pix taken with view in the background.
Doesn’t look like it has changed much, fortunately. Aloha.
yeah good point. this view has remained essentially unchanged for hundreds of thousands of years!
Always an amazing view. Make sure to secure your hat.
