OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
If you are
looking for a great picnic beach, this large
bay is not only close to Lihue but is
protected from the open ocean. However, it
is not a great swimming beach due to the
dirt (mainly silt) in the water entering the
bay from Hanamaulu stream. The waters
outside the bay are cleaner. This area is
very popular with fishermen, who flock here
when akule and other migratory fish are
schooling in the bay. Camping is allowed in
this 6 1/2-acre park.

While
Hawaii's beaches can bring much enjoyment,
it is always a good practice to use common
sense while visiting them. Please be aware
of the wave & wind conditions before going
into the water. Mornings are usually best
for swimming, snorkeling or diving. Have
respect for the strength of the waves and be
aware that high surf can come up at any
time. NEVER turn your back to the ocean.
Be careful when exploring any rocky
shorelines. Waves can crash on the rocks and
knock you over easily, and the rocks may
also be sharp when walking on them.
When snorkeling or scuba diving, please have
respect for ocean life, and remember that
the coral reef is alive too. Avoid standing
on or touching if at all possible. |
