Beach description
Miniature sandy beaches are surrounded by majestic coconut palms and an emerald grassy lawn. In places where entry into the water is difficult, special stairs and pontoons are equipped. There are gazebos for recreation, children's and sports grounds, barbecue areas. There are several tents with fast food and drinks, picnic products can be purchased at the farmer's market in Hilo.
The waters of the bay are calm and calm, there are practically no high waves and strong winds. True, the water is often muddy, which makes it difficult to conduct high-quality underwater surveys and observe marine life. But in the northern part of the island an old tower has been preserved, which children and adults use as a diving tower.
The island offers magnificent views of Hilo and the magnificent gardens of Queen Liliuokalani, and it is an excellent location for wedding ceremonies and unforgettable photo shoots.
When is the best time to go?
To lay off on the beaches of the mainland, it is best to come in the summer, when a sufficiently warm temperature is settled for swimming. Places like Florida or the Hawaiian Islands are comfortable all year round.
