Top Beaches in Hawaii
See All Lists
1. Laniakea Beach
Yes, this is THE turtle beach, the one you want to make sure you visit if you have an unhealthy obsession with seeing "honu" in their natural habitat like I do.
Like many of Hawaii's beaches your GPS might not be much help. You'll know you're at the…More »
2. Waimea Bay Beach Park
As others have said, parking in the lot is a huge pain, but be patient and something will come up. I travelled here with the King of Finding Nearby Parking so I didn't have any trouble. There are heaps of parking vultures that will tail you as and…More »
3. Ke'e Beach
This destination beach had great snorkelling but the water was super shallow, making it difficult to float over the reef without brushing up against it and getting cut up. There was a terrific designated area in the lagoon with buoy markers for…More »

- clean, well-maintained bathrooms and showers, but there are no functioning…More »
7. Waimanalo Beach Park
A very beautiful beach with a stunning view - even if you don't go into the water there is enough entertainment here to last you many hours...just look around you. This was one of the first beaches I visited in Hawaii and I may have overestimated my…More »
8. Poipu Beach
My only wish for my first trip to Hawaii was to swim with my absolute favourite reptile in the world: the sea turtle or "honu" as it's locally called. Poipu Beach, at least when I visited in November, was pitched to me as the ideal beach for honu…More »
9. Hanalei Bay Beach
The highlight of this beach is the surrounding views - this is a massive, sprawling beach that's not at all secluded, but it's so long that you won't notice the many others sharing the beach with you.There is tons of room to groove.
The mountains and…More »
