VOR Beach II

This beach is a great spot for kids when the tide is low.

Baldwin Beach Park
10 Mai Nguyen

This beach is stunning, with its crystal clear blue waters. However, be aware that it can be very windy on this side of the island. So if you're looking to have a peaceful picnic, you may end up with sand in your food! Nevertheless, it's still a lovely spot.

Paia Secret Beach
10 Emre Demir.

This petite beach is an idyllic spot for those who prefer to sunbathe and swim in the nude. It's a breeze to get to from the parking lot at Lower Pā'ia Park, and the scene is mostly made up of young beachgoers, with a male-to-female ratio of 60:40. The older single men tend to stick to the western side, while groups of young men and women frolic in the waves sans clothing. To top it off, there were five massive honu basking in the sun on the sand. The whole experience was revitalizing and freeing. 🤙

Kanaha Beach
10 Nessa McAlpine

This serene and peaceful beach is a hidden gem tucked away in a tranquil community. It's the perfect spot for a delightful family picnic or a relaxing day of leisure.

Kaulahao Beach
10 Aurora Sanchez.

This beach is a peaceful spot to observe sea turtles basking in the sun. However, there are large rocks in the water that make it challenging to swim far out. The beach has a long stretch of sandy area perfect for sunbathing, but there is no lifeguard on duty. Parking is available, but there are no restroom or shower facilities.

Hookipa beach
10 Nolan Kellerman

On our way to Mama's fish house, we made a stop at a stunning beach. We were fortunate enough to witness a sea lion and nearly 20 sea turtles, making it one of our most cherished memories ❤️. It's important to note that visitors should maintain a ten-foot distance from the turtles for their safety and well-being. Let's show respect for nature and appreciate its beauty. Thank you.
