Drive along this road for 5 minutes. You’ll pass an Astomos gas station on the left, then the Starbucks and Mahaina resort on your right. Next on your left is the Buttefly Garden (it looks like a giant Korean temple)

and then there is a small road on the left dropping down to the left towards the ocean. There’s a gap between the flower planters on the kerb.  TURN LEFT HERE.   (If you reach the Kairo restaurant or La Tilla restaurant you’ve gone too far.)
