Lanai island - all beaches

This beach is just like any other beach you've been to - white sand, bathrooms, showers, and picnic tables. It's not like it's anything special. Oh, and it's close to Manele Bay Harbor, so that's a plus, I guess. You can spend the day here if you want, but don't expect anything out of the ordinary. There's a grassy area nearby, but who cares? And sure, there are trees for shade, but that doesn't make it unique. You can cool off in the blue water, but that's what you do at any beach. So, if you're looking for a generic beach experience, this is the place for you.

The journey to the beach may be a bit bumpy, especially as you descend, so it's best to make the trip in a 4WD vehicle on a dry day. We opted to walk the final mile after getting a bit scared, but the stunning beach we discovered was worth the effort. There were no crowds to contend with, and we enjoyed a peaceful stroll along the shore before embarking on an uphill hike back to the car. On the way, we stopped at Garden of the Gods, which made us feel like we had landed on Mars. The drive itself was an adventure and added to the overall experience. However, it's not advisable to swim in the water.

What an extraordinary escapade! I strongly suggest packing a picnic and parking at one of the pullouts on the shore. The sea turtles were incredibly lively when we visited. A 4x4 vehicle is necessary to reach the beach.
