  • This is on the pavement just above the beach. It is a beautiful bronze statue. Worth looking out for if you are strolling along the beach area.

  • A very beautiful place to visit. The statue is called Makua and Kila. It's based on the children's book written by Fred Van Dyke called Makua lives on the beach. The book is about a boy who befriends a Hawaiian Monk seal that becomes his surfing buddy.
  • Probably my shortest review, but worth knowing about when walking by it. It's a nice little statue of the children's story called Makua lives on the beach, which was written by Fred Van Dyke. This was sculpted by Holly Young, and it is something you can take some cool pictures of. Enjoy the beaches nearby, and the Waikiki Wall!
