The Hoapili Trail crosses the lava field along the coast with views of tide pools, ancient Hawaiian petroglyphs, and distant Molokini crater. Dolphins are frequently spotted in the bay. The terrain is rough and exposed so good shoes and sun protection are essential. Walking on the a-a lava fields is a unique experience that helps kids understand volcanic geology in a tangible way.

The trail passes ancient sand dunes turned to stone (lithified dunes), dramatic sea cliffs, tide pools, blowholes, and a sinkhole with an ancient Hawaiian petroglyph cave. Kids are fascinated by the geological formations and the wild coastline. Humpback whales and monk seals are seen from the trail in winter. The trail is mostly flat but exposed to sun and wind. This is one of the most geologically interesting hikes in Hawaii.
