Point Udall is the easternmost geographic point in US territory. As you face into a 25-knot trade wind, the vista from the promontory high above the surf-strewn beaches is enough to make you hear symphonies. Hikers will like the challenge of taking the steep path down the hillside to isolated Isaac Bay, a nesting area for endangered sea turtles; look for the trailhead near the car park.
