Rent a canoe nearby at Kailua Beach Adventures to paddle among the small islands. The point is named for the fishing shrine, a natural stone formation on the ridge above, and Alāla means 'awakening.' Lanikai's beach houses were once mostly weekend retreats from Honolulu, but in the 1950s the area grew into a suburban neighborhood.
