Hanalei Pier, Hanalei

A visit here fills sightseeing requirements and leaves plenty of time to relax. The pier is located in busy Black Pot Beach Park, and is nearly a century old. Agricultural exporters originally docked their vessels here, but it ceased being of any commercial importance years ago. Now it is a landmark and a hangout spot. Kids gleefully jump off the edge of the pier (a short fall, but good for a splash) while adults sunbathe, fish or talk story; pidgin for "shooting the breeze."
