Beaches

My favorite white sand beach. Go early - you have to get a beach parking pass. It's free but in high season they run out often by 8:00am. If so, keep going to nearby Hapuna Beach.

Gorgeous white sand beach 45 minutes north on the Kohala coast. Morning is better as the wind can pick up around noon. Minimal fee for visitor parking.

Right next to the Kona Reef on the south side is "Honl's". Lovely for sunbathing, beach yoga, watching surfers and sunsets but I wouldn't recommend swimming there. Rocky entry, waves and currents- not a safe swim beach.

Lots of fish to see so bring your snorkel gear and remember only reef safe sunscreen to help protect the coral and sea life!
