The Pali Lookout is open now, but what’s it like? Anecdotally, not many tourists are showing up yet, and not much wind.

The famous gusty weather is sure to return, but as for the parade of malihini visitors, time will tell. According to current passenger arrival counts, fewer than half are here for pleasure or vacation. Many are returning residents or visiting friends or family, instead.

That suggests for anyone wanting to visit attractions as they looked in years gone by, now would be a good time.
