One side of the island is developed and the other less accessible side of the island is wild and unspoiled with a small native population. A village and boardwalk are on one end of a long sandy beach. Around the corner on the sunset end is a pristine cove with Kahuna's hut. Inland settings range from a high and temperamental volcano to a forbidding, deep canyon. Hidden deep in the jungle are high and beautiful warterfalls tumbling into the sacred pools that lead to a small river flowing to Kahuna Cove.
