Private Black Sand Beach with a guard 24/7 and very few people admitted each day. First come first serve for about 10 parking spaces. Black sand beach with showers, public bathrooms and no crowd. Ideal for snorkeling and swimming in calm waters. The black sand stays warm as the sun starts to set, but it can be a little too warm at mid-day. Best in the morning or in the late afternoon. Absolutely gorgeous views. The area is known to have gorgeous honu, or sea turtles come ashore and stop for a snooze throughout the day. Durable, reef-friendly and water-resistant shoes recommended.
