Gorgeous view
This is one of the most beautiful places on Kauai. Long and wide golden beach and the breathtaking view will keep you in awe. Used as a background in a couple of well know movies. Just wait for the sunset. You will not regret.

My favorite beach in Kauai
This was my favorite beach on our trip to Kauai. Unfortunately I had not discovered snorkeling yet, but look forward to snorkeling here some day! We walked down the beach quite a ways, so enjoyed the peace and quiet away from other people. We also got to watch surfers for several hours. Beautiful setting.

Great snorkeling
We stopped here to snorkel and swim and were not disappointed. There were tons of fish and two sea turtles while we were there. Theres also a great shallow area if you have little kids with you.
