The Bellstone

The Bellstone, an interesting curiosity, can be found at mile 42.7 on on hwy 30 past Kapalua. It's on the mountain side of the road. Drive past it to the parking area on the ocean side and walk back. By the way this is the parking area for a great walk down to some natural lava pools along the ocean.

The story goes that if you strike it in the right spot with another stone it will clang like a bell. The advice we've read is to strike the mountain side of the stone hard with another stone, if it doesn't clang try another spot. Judging from the marks on the Bellstone it appears a lot of places have been tried.

We decided not to scar it any further and will leave it to someone else to test it's qualities.
