OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
At Pakala
Beach you might want to stop off and enjoy
the view of expert surfers rather than try
the water or waves out for yourself. This
beach is dangerous for regular swimmers or
those who are not extremely experienced.
Lots of cars line the road here, which is
just after mile marker 21. You can park and
walk to the beach to watch some outstanding
surfing. A place on Pakala Beach is also
called Infinities simply because the waves
last for such a long time. The water is
pretty dark, but the waves are fantastic and
surfers can really hang ten.

PLEASE NOTE |

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. |
