Makapuu Blow Hole
When a wave hits the mountain, it forces water up through a hole in the lava. Â There is no pattern to the blow. Â One never knows how high the plume will be or how long it will last. Â I missed a couple dozen of them trying for the perfect shot. Â This isn’t it, but it’s the best I’ve got.
This scene played out right below the light house, which you can see here, Let’s Go to The Beach, Boys, along with some surfing pics.

This is really a cool photo! Well done.
Kay — thank you.
That looks familiar 🙂
Thom — I wonder why?
Very cool.
Wordless Wednesday – Now That’s Scary
Nessa — it would have been even more cool without the haze in the air.
That must be awesome to watch!
Nicole — it is pretty cool.
How cool! That must be fun to watch — unless you’re surprised by it while standing near it.
Barbara — it is at the bottom of a cliff. If you managed to get near it you most likely would be beyond any more surprises — ever. 😉
Beautiful! I witnessed a blow hole at Grand Cayman islands a few years ago. I have some great photos of me standing next to it. It is sometimes hard to capture those “action shots”!
Church Lady — and I am not the most patient of persons!
i would enjoy watching it and i guess it could amuse me for hours on end
Polona — I kept glancing away to watch the surfers — and as soon as I wasn’t looking the thing would blow!
Wow! Nice shot of it!
The cliffs themselves are gorgeous, too.
Susan — I wish the days were less hazy so the photo could show just how beautiful.
Stunning force of nature! Have a wonderful day, Quilly 🙂
Rosidah — it is, isn’t it? And thanks, you, too!
