Halona Blowhole is a jagged rock formation located just off Hanauma Bay on Oahu’s southeastern shore, about 45 minutes from Ko Olina. During high tide on windy days, ocean gusts send water shooting over the the rocks in a geyser-like formation. During the winter months, this is a great location from which to view humpback whales as they begin their southward migration.
The rock formation was created by volcanic lava, which accounts for its black, jagged features. A friendly beach is also located beside the cove.

Visitors are cautioned, however, to heed all warning signs as strong wind can lead to dangerous conditions.
