Fodor's Expert Review Kapuaiwa Coconut Grove
Central Molokai
Free
From far away this spot looks like a sea of coconut trees. Closer up you can see that the tall stately palms are planted in long rows leading down to the sea. This is a remnant of one of the last surviving royal groves planted for Prince Lot, who ruled Hawaii as King Kamehameha V from 1863 until his death in 1872. The grove is planted on private property---visitors should observe from outside of the perimeter fence.
