Mānana Island from Makapuu Lookout
What a gorgeous day it was on O‘ahu for this day trip around the island. This bird sanctuary off the O‘ahu coast looks so close!

We spotted Mānana Island from Makapu‘u Point while we on our driving tour of O‘ahu. This little island is less than a mile off the coast and is uninhabited by people. It is a bird sanctuary and, while we didn’t see any birds from the coast, I’m sure they were enjoying the day. This is a very small version of any other Hawaiian island and was created by volcanoes.

The island might also be called Rabbit Island (it shows up on Google Maps with that name) because there was once a rabbit colony introduced to the island. Fortunately, the rabbits were eradicated because they were destroying the natural ecosystem.

About Terry

I started out as a skip tracer. Just in case you don’t know, that’s the guy who finds the people who don’t want to be found. It was the little things—getting paid to lie—that made skip tracing the fun part of the job.

Those years of chasing deadbeats taught me many valuable life lessons, such as liars come from all walks of life, and always keep your car in the garage.
