Description Suggest change

This is a line up the tallest cliff jump, the one with the big tree people jump off of and spacious overlook with views of Luau and Stone Island.

With no paddle board or kayak, the 1st crux is starting in the water and 2nd crux is a V3-V4 boulder section halfway up. After the boulder moves, the climbing is cruiser with glorious deep water exposure below.

1st crux: Luckily there's a ledge under the cliff for feet to eliminate any campus start. Look for block holds and climb straight up towards a crack/lip system right where the roof starts. Traverse right to the bouldery section. Climb with intent and save energy for the 2nd crux.

2nd crux: On the boulder moves, you can either lean back on the crack with matching hands or use a left hand on a handhold and work the crack with a right hand. After this, go for a big reach above the crack on anything you can grab. Don't forget about your feet. The fall is good with water below.

All of this can be eliminated with a paddle board start, starting straight below the 2nd crux following small crimps to the boulder section.

Location Suggest change

From the cove point, walk up the trail along the cliffs. This is the classic cliff jump spot with a view of Luau and Stone island. You'll know it when you see it. 

Protection Suggest change

Have a friend in the water to spot potential cliff jumpers and bring life jackets. Extra points for a inflatable tube and victory brew.
