Once you go through the little town of Hana, it is recommended that you continue on the road at least until you reach 'Ohe'o Gulch which is also known as the Seven Sacred Pools. Now how exactly the name came about, is uncertain as these water are not known to be sacred and there are not seven pools either. Regardless, it is a beautiful location that is worth the trip. Often times you are able to swim in the pools. However the day we were there the water was flowing just a little too much for swimming to be safe, but it still made for some great photo opportunities.

As we continued around the island, we stopped briefly to take in the view and when we looked back we were greeted by this gorgeous rainbow.
