Heart Shaped Rock Maui
love at first rock
A love as deep as blue sea <3 I have wanted to see this spot for quite some time but either didn't know where it was or could't make it down, but I finally did and it was perfect.
Located at the Nakalele Lookout, right next to the blowhole, you will find this gem. It is to the right of the blowhole (when facing the ocean). It can be a little tricky to see it unless you're straight in front of it, but if you see a rock with a hole chances are it is probably it!
The waves might splash some, just be aware of the tide and if it is safe to approach. At some times during the year it is advised to avoid this area because large waves can come and sweep you out to sea. Always use best judgement when exploring the area.
Make sure you watch the Nakalele Blowhole while you down there!
how to get here
You will drive along the Kahekili Highway until you hit mile marker number 38. Here you will see plenty of parking and most likely other cars here as well. There will be signs leading you down to the blowhole, there is no marked path so go slow and use your best judgement. The rock is located to the right of the blowhole facing the ocean.
warning
If the tide is high please avoid this area. Large waves can knock you off your balance and sweep you to the sea. Do not get to close to the edge near the rock, and do not get to close to the blowhole as it can suck you in. Do not leave valuables viable in car.
