From this small parking area there are fine views over Kuilei Cliffs Beach Park and up the coast toward Kahala. On the east side of the parking area, look for the Amelia Earhart Marker, which recalls her 1935 solo flight from Hawaii to California. It's an enjoyable 1.4-mile walk beyond Kaimana Beach in Waikiki.
