The Queen's Bath is one of Princeville's favorite attractions. The short 10 minute hike is beautiful as you pass a waterfall down a rocky landscape to the lava rock. Another 5 minute trek over lava rocks leads to the bath. The bath is about the size of a swimming pool. It is a natural tide pool with some fish in the bath. Water spills over the lava rocks to refresh the pool. Although the scenery and bath are a pleasant summer time excursion, like many ocean attractions the area should be approached with caution.
Mike quietly took a picture of this plaque along the trail numbering the drownings, and deaths. It was a good thing I saw this one on way up the trail rather than on the way down.
Stunning view from above.
I was slow in my approach to the tide pool. Before I could ask if it was safe, Ben was jumping off the rocks. I was quite surprised by his bravery.
Enjoying the pool.
Another beautiful view.
Shopping and lunching at Hanalei.
Shopping at flea markets on the way back to our resort; Ben's traditional mermaid pose; and aww.....diet coke relief.
