Real Traveler reviews for Nuuanu Pali Lookout

More information on Nuuanu Pali Lookout

Nuuanu Pali is a mountain overlook which allows for amazing views of the Oahu coast. Stories say that in 1795, King Kamehameha fended off invaders by chasing them up these cliffs. The pass is over 1,000 feet high, making for a high drop, but also grants tourists views of the Koolau Mountains and across the town of Kaneohe. Be careful, though - the strong trade winds can cause visitors to lose their balance!
