Halona Blow Hole

This guide to the Halona Blow Hole near Honolulu opens with the 1953 film crew who shot Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr in the surf of the cove beside you for From Here to Eternity, giving the beach its lasting nickname. You'll hear how the blowhole itself formed over thousands of years, as an ancient lava tube from Koko Crater wore through to daylight, and about the pull it exerts on visitors who climb past the fences to get closer. Stay behind the rail and watch the spray from a safe distance.
