Kāohikaipu Island 80 feet high, is a flat, black mass of rock midway between Mānana Island and Makapu‘u Head. A double rock, 10 feet high, is 200 yards NE of Kāohikaipu Island and a small black rock, barely above water, is about the same distance SW of the island. There are depths of 5 fathoms between Mānana and Kāohikaipu Islands, but passage is not recommended for strangers because reefs make off from both islands. Depths are 4 to 6 fathoms in the bight between Kaohikaipu Island and Makapu‘u Head; passage is not recommended.
