Judd Park is on the Kalawao side of the peninsula and overlooks the scenic rugged sea cliffs, ephemeral waterfalls, dramatic ocean rock formations, and crashing surf of Molokai's north shore. The area has a covered picnic spot where residents and visitors often relax and eat for lunch.

Judd Park was constructed during the superintendency of Lawrence Judd. He strove to give patients something of a normal life -- a treatment of the soul as well as the body. He began the Lions Club, as well as other social groups. Many of these organizations helped to improve the settlement grounds and the overall lifestyle of the patients.
