See Hōlei Sea Arch, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii
Holei Sea Arch is located within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Ocean erosion created the Holei Sea Arch at the end of Chain of Craters Road.
In mid July 2022, a big chunk of rock appears ready to break loose from the lower part of the leg. It is possible the arch could collapse into the ocean at any time without warning! Do not walk out onto Hōlei Sea Arch – it has been closed for years due to instability. Earth cracks, erosion and steep ocean cliffs are a few of the hazards near the arch. Admire what could possibly be a last look at Hōlei Sea Arch from the safe viewing area away from the cliff edge, near the end of Chain of Craters Road.
Sea arches are beautiful, and a temporary part of the ever-changing volcanic landscape. Hōlei Sea Arch was formed as the Pacific Ocean pounded into an ancient lava flow about 550 years ago.
