A small beach park in the Kapa'a town. I went to have a small picnic to myself here. There is one gazebo with a bench. Nice place to watch people fish or take a walk. The parking has a bunch of spaces. I definitely recommend watching the sunrise here. There's grass and rocks to enjoy. read more

Nice long beach, has a nice trail for walking, running or biking. Beach is a bit grainy sand and the beach is filthy with debris of large pieces of wood, sticks, and old dry vegetation- you can tell the beach doesn't get raked or cleaned. You have to clear off an area for your beach towel or you'll be sitting on all the wood and crap. read more

Public park near downtown Kapaa. A short stroll away from the main drag is a beach with a public park attached. While all beaches in Hawaii are open to the public regardless of location,they aren't always easy to get to. This is especially true for disadvantaged groups. So it's great that these " wide open accessable" beach parks are available. I met an older Hawaiian lady born and raised here that's never been to the beautiful Northside beaches! But, she does incorporate a walk to this one,a short stroll from her modest home. So, celebrate your good fortune of being able to visit the breathtaking beach spots on Kauai by visiting the more modest local spots and think about it. read more

We spent our last afternoon in Kauai relaxing here. There's not a lot of shade on the beach itself. We found some trees back in the grassy area to relax under. The beach itself is nice. It's not crowded which is definitely a perk. There's a nice walking trail that goes behind it along the town for a bit (and off of the main street). There are a couple of picnic tables on the far side a bit off of the beach. We found a shop to rent some beach chairs at about a 5 minute walk away (since we were flying out that day). Overall, it's a nice place to spend an afternoon. read more

This was my favorite beach because it's calm and very low key. Where we picked doesn't even have an official parking lot but there's enough street parking that you can find a spot anytime. There's a bathroom building in the center but I didn't see any showers around where we were. The water is crystal clear and it stays s pretty shallow for a good amount on the shore so you can swim with kids safely. Just be aware of the current direction and the tide situation just as you would with any ocean swimming. I brought a cooler and an umbrella and chilled there a few days. My daughter loved swimming there so much that I had s hard time peeling her off the beach Oh how I long to return sooner rather than later!! God please make my dream come true and bring me home!! read more

To get here take the entry road off Highway 27 (traveling north), past 16 mile marker. This is a very small beach, maybe 200 yards across at the most. There are a couple of picnic tables and BBQ pits, along with bathroom facilities. The shoreline is very rocky, and I'm not sure how good the swimming here is. When I was here, there was a group of teenagers smoking pakalolo, which maybe the only thing this small, secluded and seemingly often empty park is good for. (Pics included) read more

Pretty little beach/park adjacent to the bike path that's not too packed with people! The sand is soft, the water blue...how can you complain?!? At night however, this place gets a little scary with riff raff and it's dark so be careful. read more

I'm not sure if this beach is typically less swimmable most of the year or just during this time of the year but I didn't find many swimmers in the ocean. Although there are certain areas where the water is a bit more calm. While we walked along the shore we found groups of sketchy people. It's not particularly the cleanest most pristine beach either. If you're looking for the swing, the best way to describe it is that it's located behind the building of the public library. It may not be in tip top shape as it's most likely voluntarily maintained by the locals. read more

Since Kauai has so many beautiful beaches, this one does not look the best. Although, it has some picnic table. Possible good resting area. Still the ocean looks beautiful. This is behind the Old Kapaa town. The parking area is busy and does not feel safe to me. YELP 365 - 231/365 read more

This is not a great beach for swimming, but for sitting at a picnic table with a shave ice, it's perfect. There's a great view, and it would be a nice place for a picnic ,I just wouldn't stay to lay out,or swim. read more

The second beach that I visited on my vacation in Hawaii. I loved it. WAY better than the Bay Area. Much cleaner, warmer, beautiful than Bay Area. Makes you just wanna lay in the sand and roll around. Was fun when the water ran up and pulled you back read more

Absolutely beautiful surf! In addition, this town has, by far, the most rude locals on the island. North shore and even northeastern shores have super friendly locals who will gladly strike up a conversation with you or stop traffic so you can cross a street. So far here in Kappa, the surf is spectacular but the locals are right off the boat from New York City! read more

This beach is beautiful. Nice sand, blue waters. There is also a bicycle path that stretches miles long for you to cruise on your bicycle rental. I walked around this beach and loved it. Next time, I will try renting a bicycle at the nearby shops and go for a stroll! read more

I'm not sure if this is the same beach we went to...it's on the North, slightly west, side of Kauai and the end of the major highway. We loved this beach. The parking was kinda crazy...but fun! The area was gorgeous and required a little walk down the road to get to the beach from where we parked. What gorgeous scenery! The park has a lot of trees and needle droppings from the trees, which was the only thing I didn't like. It's a smaller beach park, but very cozy. It's the beginning of one of Kauai's best but most difficult hikes. I wish we had something on other then our water shoes as we would have loved to do some of the hike. read more

The maps associated with this review is incorrect as of this date. The park is on the island of Hawaii south of Hawi. This is really not a swimming beach. It is very rocky. However, I know people who swim here. But it is a great place to sit in the shade and watch the whales. And it appears you can camp here also. I sat, read, and watched whales under the shade of tree here. There is also a covered picnic area you can view whales from. For doing that, I would rate it highly. read more
