Grew up swimming here as a kid and was pleasantly surprised to see it's still well-maintained…read more Can't believe it's a public pool as it's better than some of the paid facilities at gyms that I've used. Great hours, and the staffs are friendly. Not too crowded and although I remembered it always being freezing cold, the temps were actually not too bad. Has a swim area for children and a deeper area, though warning that it is pretty deep. There's a designated lap area with lanes as well. Really love this pool and happy I got a chance to come back and swim here again!

We found out about this oceanside swimming pool (250 feet long)from the Big Island Revealed app…read more It's five feet deep in some spots. Bring your water shoes and snorkel gear! It's 2.7 miles north of the corner from Highway 132 and 137 (so, go North on Government Beach Road). This is a paved road. Around 2.7 miles, you'll come across a small hill, on the downside of the hill, you'll see a dirt road on your right through a hau bush (twisted looking trees that are entwined). If you hit Pakaka Road, you went too far. There is no parking lot. There is a small one-spot parking space that you can back into (perpendicular to the road). There are two roadside beams indicating this spot. You can also park along the road. From Government Beach Road, on the dirt road, it's 1500 feet to the shoreline. The pool is 100 yards to the left once you hit the shoreline. I do not recommend driving down the path to the shoreline because the branches are low and it's super muddy. It's an easy walk. Towards the shoreline, you'll see an abandoned turquoise minivan. It's obvious that someone was squatting in the van at some point. The engine has been torn out, windows broken, carry-out boxes everywhere, and the rainforest has started to entwine itself with the car. On the coast, there were more signs of squatters. The pool was beautiful. We went during high tide and the pools were super full and the waves were crashing hard against the rocks. The app said we should go during low tide...whoops. We didn't run into a single person. It was super secluded and beautiful. Although the walk was really neat through the hau bush and having an oceanside swimming pool to ourselves was cool...I would not do this again. Honestly, I didn't feel safe. We didn't see any squatters but the signs made me uneasy. There is no cellphone signal and your completely isolated. I recommend this for large groups of people only.

Blink and you'll miss it - there are no signs or markers and barely any parking in the area, which only adds to the local appeal. Tourists have no idea it's here and drive right past because the main attraction (the waterfall and diving rocks) are tucked out of view from the road above. To find it, look for the small gap in the guard rail where you hike a short ways down a path to the pool. At the end of the path you'll be treated to several large rocks that are good for laying out towels and lounging about. It's also a great spot to watch the brave ones dive off the rocks near the waterfall. The water here is super clean and refreshing. It's the absolute best place to cool off while avoiding the crowds.
