Beach overall scores
Hanamaulu Beach (Hawaii) is located outside the Hanamaulu settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.
The beach stretches on the coast of the Kauai island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Hanamaulu Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.
User reviews
"If you're looking for a spot to pass the time before taking off on your next adventure, this beach is a decent option. However, if you're seeking a pristine shoreline, you may want to explore other options. The water here can be quite murky, and there are no convenient facilities for washing off after a dip."
Aiden Rivera
"A fantastic spot to spend some leisure time and relax before your flight! It's an excellent playground for children. Although the water was choppy due to the windy December weather, I'm sure it's much more pleasant during the summer. Additionally, there are clean and well-maintained restrooms and showers available. This is a popular spot among locals."
