This is a very dangerous cave. Plz tread lightly. I was recently on the rocks watching people jump in, and a HUGE wave came by and took us all out. Cut open my left leg. It’s no joke
I don’t know why u said” we” u not even the government or the president and plus you don’t pay shi all do is work like the rest of us so don’t be talking big
Ok guys...gotta be honest with you. The westside of Oahu is not a tourists destination. I know, I know...you saw some chick on Insta posing like a mermaid in some random cave and decided to look up the location. But be warned: Don't be surprised if people break into your car and steal your shit or if you find yourself being hassled by locals. Just know as well that you will be in the midst of a neighborhood. Be considerate of them. Also, high surf makes going to these caves pretty dangerous. Don't underestimate it.
I lived on Oahu. I learned to live alongside the locals, and found most of them terrific. For the great many of them, if you give them respect, you get it back. Of course, since I wasn't a tourist, that helped. I'm not that wild about tourists myself.
@@TheBatugan77Ya da locals aren't necessarily bad. We just got problems like everyone else. But when you look too much from the lens of tourism, you don't tend to seek the knowledge of people who have been brought up there. After all, it is there home. So I put this comment out there. From a Native Hawaiian son. Born and raised. Aloha to all. Just be careful.
I can confirm this. I went here in 2018 and had my bag stolen. There was a large homeless population that lives at a park nearby. Not sure if they’re still there but we talked to a local who was helping us and she explained the locals do not welcome tourists on this side of the island and theft was a reoccurring issue.
Do you live in Nanakuli? Why you posting this place? Our football coach died trying to save someone like you who don't respect our place and ocean. You're a disrespectful visitor.
You folks park so far Should have park at Zubland. It’s amazing how we grew up all this time with the caves there and now it’s a tourist attraction 🤦🏽♂️😭😢🤦🏽♂️ There are a lot of cave along the coastline there.
Hi there, I loved your video! Since we are planning our holidays in Oahu for the very first time I’d like to ask you where are those beautiful mermaid caves located? Also how did you get out of that cave? It looked quite difficult to get in so how do you get out?
I did a video on Zablan Beach which is at the other end of the same beach....I was wondering where to find the "Mermaid Cave"....thanks for sharing this video...your thumbnail had a sense that you was the mermaid which was coool....
@@LaineyhulaAdventures Mahalo nui loa! We'll be there soon too. So beautiful! Edit: I'm Polynesian (not Hawaiian but close cousin, Tahitian) so -- For kama'aina reading this: Yes, always we respect the 'aina and we are very careful. I'm swimming since before I could walk, and we respect the tides. For haole tourists reading this: PLEASE remember, this is someone else's homeland. Be careful and respectful. I know these caves have been posted all over YT, but they are not "touristy spot" so BE CAREFUL. Local kids know these caves. Don't take risks and NEVER LEAVE TRASH BEHIND. Not even a lei. The string on lei is dangerous to sea life. If you have any trash, bring it back with you.
I hate when people post this kind of stuff, somethings should not be shared like this. These caves can be extremely dangerous, if you were a true local you would know this. Did you add that there are families that live right at this beach? Do you think they like seeing strangers Risking their lives for a photo shot? Did you mention the amount of people that have drowned in this spot? Anyone not from here, let me warn you that the west side oceans are dangerous, this is not a swimming pool. I get tired of helping dumb tourists getting out of this cave because they wanted a “cute” pic for their Instagram. They put their life at risk and ours.
Tbh be real careful about coming this side all fun and games till your shit get stolen 🤣 other then that enjoy your time no ack dumb and never mind tell secret spots 🤧🤙🏼🤙🏼
Aloha! I'm not renaming it...this is what other people have been calling it so that's what I know 🤷🏻♀️. Good to know it's also referred to as Tunnelz. 😎👍
@@LaineyhulaAdventures I’m born and raised Nanakuli and I have been swimming there before social media exploited it. We have been calling it Tunnelz, it’s what I’ve known it to be since I was born. Mahalo Nui 🤙🏽🤙🏽
@@LaineyhulaAdventures It used to be a local spot but now I hear it's packed with tourists looking for "Mermaid Caves." I see you sharing aloha, and I think your intention is beautiful, but there's consequences. I hope that area doesn't become gentrified, causing more displacement of kanaka and kama'aina. That usually happens when tourists come around and start spending money in the area. I'm glad that you went and had a good time, and took beautiful pics, but why tell the whole world how to get there? Why not just your friends and family? It's not about being selfish, it's about being smart and making sure Hawaiian lands stay in Hawaiian hands. All it takes is one rich haole to see this and decide it should belong to him. I pray that people who visit Hawaii realize that it's not just a tourist destination for them, it's someone's home. Anyway, not trying to make you feel bad, just giving you something to think about. Aloha.
@@LaineyhulaAdventures Just a suggestion since you moved to the islands. Please don't share local spots. Locals already having a hard time here. Please learn about the history and go to the Bishop Museum. Aloha

Do stupid things revive stupid outcomes, your stupidity doesn’t mean others are as stupid
I was there 40 years ago before You Tube. Not many people knew about it back then. Please be careful!!!
Incredibly informative 👍 thank you!
All the locals mad but realize we pay their wages

maybe someone can donate a taller ladder
Did we lose makua is it now where big foot used to live
Is the ladder required? Also, what do you suggest from that market? Looks good!
Aloha! The ladder is definitely helpful. I recommend the marlin poke, that was good from what I remember. 😊
That is where Jolie bee moved to.
Look how much views this video. Now imagine that number of people at that spot.😑😑😑😑🤐

Zablan beach right
what is the POKE ? i never try it
Poke is raw fish marinated in soy sauce, sesame oil, and other things. It's pretty good, try it next time you come to Hawaii!
Great, now that everyone knows about it, it will get trashed by tourist.
So annoying yah? Ughhh
Where is this place? How far from wikiki beach ?
Where's proof of mermaids 🧜♀️
Tbh be real careful about coming this side all fun and games till your shit get stolen 🤣 other then that enjoy your time no ack dumb and never mind tell secret spots 🤧🤙🏼🤙🏼
One of these days her tombstone on mermaid cave will say, “did it for the likes.”
Wow amazing, I’m going in a few weeks
Awesome! Enjoy! Thanks for watching.
This is NOT a dam MERMAID CAVE this is an old SHARK HOLE. How I know... Well, I was born & raised here in Nānākuli. This is where.

Tourist changed Shark cave to Mermaid cave.
Can you explore blue holes please and titanic ship wreck if you can
Hmm I haven't heard of these here. Are these on Oahu island?
Titanic is in Atlantic, whole other ocean.
