To the southwest are several important destinations. Punalu`u Black Sand Beach is famous for its black sands and palm trees and its native Hawaiian sea turtles that bask on the shore and swim fearlessly among the surfers, snorkelers and swimmers. Further west is the village of Na`alehu, with restaurants, gallery, the famous Punaluu Bake Shop visitor center, a theater and stores.

Heading south is Kalae, the southernmost place in the United States. The 12-mile road from Highway 11 heads makai (towards the sea) through ranches, past a windmill farm and a Hawaiian village, to dramatic sea cliffs and a small beach. This is where Polynesians first landed by canoe in Hawaii.

old bank, community club house
and plantation manager's home are surrounded by giant banyan,
floral and fruit trees.
