One of the more popular scenic vistas on O'ahu and the site of one of the bloodiest battles in Hawaiian history, the Pali Lookout provides a panoramic view of Windward O'ahu. Also interesting at this site is the Old Pali Road, formerly the highway connecting Windward O'ahu to downtown Honolulu. A note of caution: due to its location between two high cliffs, the Pali Lookout is often buffeted by high winds.

Nu’uanu Pali Lookout is a quick and easy stop that will allow you to catch an amazing view, stand in a place rich with history, and experience some of Oahu’s strongest winds.

In 1795, Nu’uanu was the site of King Kamehameha’s final battle as he conquered the Hawaiian Islands and brought them under one rule. Many soldiers fell to their death from these tall, looming cliffs.

Today the Nu’uanu Pali Lookout marks the site of this fateful fight and offers visitors the chance to look out over the Koolau Mountains and Oahu coastline as the island’s fierce winds whip through the clearing.

You’ll spend a short time at this easy-to-access site. The lookout is a great stop along the Pali Highway as you head to either North Shore or Kailua Town.

We think a visit here is one of the best things to do in Oahu!
