2 Very poor

After reading some fantastic reviews, we were eager to explore this beach. However, upon arriving, we were disappointed to find that it did not live up to our expectations. The beach was quite narrow and uneven, making it difficult to find a suitable spot to lay our towels. Moreover, the limited amount of sand was littered with debris and had an unpleasant odor. Additionally, the abundance of rocks made it unsuitable for swimming.

The beach is a breathtaking sight to behold, with its natural beauty and stunning scenery. It is a place where nature's wonders are on full display, and the experience is truly unforgettable. The pristine waters and soft sand make for a perfect day in the sun, while the gentle breeze and warm sun rays provide a relaxing atmosphere. It is truly a natural wonder, and a must-see for anyone seeking to reconnect with nature and experience its beauty firsthand.

4 Frustrating

The beach is strikingly beautiful, however, it is strongly advised against swimming in the waters due to the fierce riptides that pose a great danger. I had high hopes of taking a dip in the ocean, being one of the major attractions of Kauai Beach Resort, but was left disheartened. Nevertheless, the natural splendor of the beach is undeniable and cannot be disputed.

The beach is not crowded, providing a serene and peaceful atmosphere. There is an abundance of crabs to observe, as well as sea cucumbers and a small number of man o' wars that can be admired from a safe distance. It is an ideal location to witness the beauty of the sunrise.
