ʻEhukai Pillbox Trail

Seclusion, Surf, and Shrimp on Oahu's North Shore

"I chose the Ehukai Pillbox Hike over the more crowded Lanikai trail and climbed from Sunset Elementary School up a rutted path to two World War II 'pillbox' bunkers—each decorated with pacifistic graffiti; good shoes are a must, and a rope 'banister' tied to trees helps on the steepest sections." - Gina DeCaprio Vercesi Gina DeCaprio Vercesi Gina DeCaprio Vercesi is a New York-based writer with a passion for adventure, history, and conservation.
