Hawaii is the kind of place that's as beautiful from far above as it is from down below. One of Hawaii's most iconic sights, what's the name of this volcanic tuff cone?

When you see it from above, Diamond Head looks more like a traditional volcanic crater. From ground level, it juts out over Waikiki Beach. Hawaiians call it Lēʻahi, most likely derived from lae plus ʻahi because the shape reminds them of a tuna's dorsal fin.
