We parked & hiked on the North side. When I got out of our Jeep there was window glass everywhere. We did not have our windows broken into, but obviously someone before us did. It was hot & the hi… Full review by Jeremy-Teresa R

You need to be a HI resident and obtain permit to be able to access this park. Great area for 4X4 access, hikes, and private secluded beaches. You can see whales breaching (in season), sea turtles, d… Full review by SeanCervone

We arrived later than we wanted, around 9am, but there was a nice steady breeze. Bring lots of cold water and sunscreen!!! We hiked from the Waianae side to the point and back. It's a much easier wal… Full review by lmiller808
Hi, we're looking at visiting from Waianae. And I've read where the walk is longer but easier. How long are the walk/hikes? It is hard to get an estimate from Google maps. Thanks for any help.

You need to budget at least a few hours for either approach. It all depends on how aggressive you walk. The approach from Waianae is shorter but slower because the trail is washed out near the point and you'll need to do some short climbs. The north approach is basically level. It wasn't windy the time I was there, but I could see how that could be a factor. It took me much longer to hike in than out on the north approach. Going in I stopped at many locations, but going out I didn't stop. If you are able bodied and short on time I'd recommend the wset approach. If you have the better part of the day and need a level course then the north approach is for you.
I have read that Ka'ena point is an awesome place for stargazing, and I'd very much like to give it a try. Have anyone tried this? Is it better to go hiking or riding a bike? Is it dangerous at night? I'd be going with my boyfriend. I'll be visiting Oahu and Kauai, is Ka'ena Point the best place in both of these islands to see stars? Thanks guys!!
A:
The trail is long but easily navigable. I've been there a few times after dark, and it's AMAZING for stargazing. But it's so dark, the hike back is difficult.
