7 Backwater along Onomea Trail on Hāmākua Coast, Island of Hawaii, Hawaii

At the end of the Old Onomea Road, which is a short distance off of the Hawaii Belt Road, is a 600 foot walking trail that was apparently forged by donkeys when this area was a sugar mill in the early 19th century. During this easy hike through lush vegetation you will be rewarded with several scenes like this one of a backwater at the edge of Onomea Bay. If you look closely, you can see that the pool is full of fish that get trapped here during low tide.
