I was a big fan of the TV show Lost. So when I found myself on the North Shore of Oahu, I couldn’t help stopping to see a couple of the locations used in the show.
The first location was Mokule’ia Beach, which was transformed during filming into the Crash Site, the central setting for all six seasons. With the set now long gone, it’s barely recognisable. For those of you who didn’t watch Lost, just enjoy the beauty of this isolated beach framed by thickly vegetated mountains, Pacific rollers and a perfect blue sky.
Unlike Mokule’ia Beach, the second location we visited was instantly recognisable from Lost, as the village where ‘the Others’ lived. In real life it’s actually Camp Erdman, owned and operated by the YMCA.
As a bonus, we found a geocache at both sites!

This post was inspired by the photo themes of Words starting with the letter ‘N’ (in this case ‘North Shore’) from Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge, Transformation from Jen of The Daily Post, and Traces of the Past from Paula of Lost In Translation.

I wouldn’t mind to be lost there 🙂
Me neither, Jo. Imagine all the walks you could go on.
I saw a few footsteps in the sand. 🙂
Beautiful photos and post for this week. Thanks Jaspa 😀
Thanks, Cee!

Dream-like place. Thank you, Jaspa.
Unlike on ‘Lost’, it’s a chilled-out place, Paula.
