Mokuola (Coconut Island)

Mokuola is a place of healing in Hawaiian tradition and has been a refuge — a puʻuhonua — long before it was a county park. Even when the bridge is open, conduct yourself the way you would on sacred ground: walk it, don't run; don't shout; don't climb the diving tower; don't swim onto the island from a kayak to skip the line. Today the bridge is collapsed. Do not try to reach the island from the water; it is closed.
