Stop 2 –  Nakalele Point Lighthouse & Tide Pools

The Nakalele Point Lighthouse doesn’t look like a traditional lighthouse but more like a tall white beam with an automatic black & white panel that flashes light. The significance of this lighthouse is that it marks the most northern point of West Maui!
