   Halona Blowhole

   Continuing on the shoreline passing by Hanauma Bay and Koko Head Crater, we'll take you to witness a spectacular blowhole that was formed thousands of years ago from the volcanic Koko Crater. The molten lava flowed down from the crater and formed a lava tube. When the waves crash onto this volcanic rock formation, the lava tube forces the ocean water to blow up like a geyser over 50 ft. high. You can also see layers beyond layers of past volcanic extinction activities from this scenic point.
