Overview

Learn a little bit about the islands you visiting while walking/hiking and rest assured that an experience you have tailored should be as flexible as it is dependable. Maybe make some friends along the way but certainly leave with your heart full.

Come search for new fruits along the trail, explore the unique ecosystems and weather pattern, and find foliage and flowers that you have never seen before.

Find yourself in a place worthy of a postcard and leave with your family’s image in that postcard.

Go for a hike that will get you away from the crowds, and maybe find some new fruits, and be ready to return to friends and family bombarding you with questions about how you found such a place.

Take home with you the photos that you’ll be sharing with your friends and family online, all without having to distract yourself from the views while you're there.

And if you’re here to take pictures yourself, allow me to help make sure you don't miss out on the good lighting.

    What To Expect

    We will begin by hearing what the locals have to say about how to best respect the land and being safe.(not going in the water)

    Then we will make our way down to the black sand beach and set up our photo shoot for your family vacation. I will give you a little history and answer any questions on the way down. I'll be here for you as a guide but dont mind taking a step back and capturing the moment in a more candid manner. We can stay as long as you'd like. Theres fruit to find(depending on season) and its an amazing and safe place to watch the sun set. The water is aggressive so no swimming but the sound of the waves will be worth spending the time to sit and listen for a while.

    Once we take our photos we will relax for a little while before making our way back up.
    (bring water for everyone).

    Its an easy hike down and a moderate hike back up, but we can take breaks as you like.(20 minutes up with no break)

    If you'd like to set up a proposal this would be an amazing place to do so. If thats the case we can talk about how you'd like me to set up to capture the moment without being noticed. Obviously you dont want to ruin the surprise so I can be as hidden as I need to be.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Hawaii over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
