Maui, more Day 3 (December 28, 2025)

We explored the Olivine Pools, so named for the semi-precious olivine encrusted in the surrounding lava and sandstone. See the tiny people in the pool? It was quite a scramble down from the road. As the tide rose, splashes from the ocean created little waterfalls over the rocks.

Mya, Piper, and I work our way down the sometimes slippery trail. I think this is to the Olivine Pools but it might be the trail to the blowhole. Both trails are steep and rocky.

Two markers on the way down warned us about rogue waves that washed people out to sea in 2017 and 2018. 

Ryder and the kids explore the rocks surrounding the three pools.
