Wai’anapanapa State Park is one of the best Road to Hana sites. It offers nearly 360-degree sweeping panoramic views. The hills of green jungle give way to the rugged and dramatic black basalt lava coastline. In stark contrast, the tide pools turn red several times a year with the arrival of small shrimp.
The park also has seabird colonies, lava tubes, blowholes, freshwater caves and a natural stone arch.
