Today the world-famous resort area of Waikiki is the most valuable real estate in all of the Hawaiian Islands. (HawaiiLife.com)

The McCully Bridge, which spans the canal, is an important infrastructure element that facilitates transportation and connectivity for residents and visitors alike. The bridge not only provides a practical crossing point but also offers scenic views of the canal and its surroundings, making it a popular spot for both pedestrians and cyclists.
The canal is also home to a diverse range of wildlife, including various bird species and aquatic life, which adds to its ecological significance. The presence of the McCully Bridge enhances the experience for those enjoying the canal, as it allows for easy access to different parts of the area and encourages exploration of the natural beauty that Hawaii has to offer.
