If you love cliff jumping, there are a few places on O'ahu that might satisfy your craving during your stay. While Waimea Bay is a popular spot on the north shore, you can test the waters at China Walls on the east side first before graduating to Spitting Caves a few blocks up the road. A few words of caution:
- never underestimate the power of the waves
- talk to locals about potential hazards
- keep children away from the edge
- if in doubt, don't jump
- go with a friend

the entrance is at the end of this cul-de-sac.

note: if the rocks are wet, you are within reach of the waves!
