That looks too undeveloped to be Kihei. Although I do see the windmills in the distance.

Clarifying: Maybe way down, past Makena?

Farrington Highway, with Ka'ena Point in the distance?

Do they have windmills like that on Oahu? If so, your guess makes better sense.

I don't recall if there are windmills in that area. That just looked like a possible stretch of shoreline.

The windmills on west Maui are oriented more directly up and down the hill.

Close, but not quite. It's one of the more famous filming locations on that shoreline. Also note an airport in the photo.

So then that is the Farrington Highway, but looking east from Ka'ena Point on the north shore with Dillingham on the right edge.

Yes!

Mokuleia beach, a Lost filming location. The picture taken from Mokuleia wall rock climbing area. Here's me belaying my son on that wall. One of the very few climbing areas in Hawaii.

Nope - but coincidentally post #12 in this thread does happen to be a picture of Wailua Falls, taken from downstream.

Ok, so then is it Rainbow Falls on the Big Island? They look a lot alike. :D

I don't think I've ever visited there. Seen Rainbow Falls and Akaka Falls, but not Pe'epe'e. We have a Hawaii trip planned (fingers crossed) for August that includes a week on the Big Island. If it happens, I'm going to the falls. Thanks!

You just continue up the road above Rainbow Falls. If you keep going far enough, and make the correct turns, you wind up on the Saddle Road.
