'Anahulu Cave
ʻAnahulu
A seaside limestone cave with forests of stalactites, ending in a cool freshwater pool where you can swim.
Anahulu Cave lies on the island's east coast by the sea. The cave is lit, and visitors can see stalactites and stalagmites. At the far end is a clear underground freshwater pool, where you can swim and dive off the rocks. Just outside the cave mouth is Anahulu Beach, and at low tide you can snorkel in the lagoon. Entry costs about 20 pa'anga, including lighting. Bring swimwear, a towel and non-slip shoes. The cave is about 25 kilometers from the capital and lies on the east route, together with the Trilithon and ʻOholei Beach.
