A List Of The Best Hawaiian Beaches

Long weekends and beaches go hand in hand. When it comes to finding the best Hawaiian beaches, there are almost as many choices as there are locations themselves. And in Hawaii, they number in the hundreds. We're sharing a few more of our favorites today before heading up to Hanalei Bay. Please add yours to the list!


1. Hanalei Bay Kauai

Hanalei Bay, iconic Kauai is an island favorite and that of travelers worldwide. There isn't much we haven't already said about this beauty that's been featured in films including most recently The Descendants.

2. Makena Beach Maui

South of Wailea, this is one of the island's best beaches and a great escape when staying to the north at Lahaina and beyond. The beach is long and wide, protected by lava walls. It has great swimming, snorkeling, and sunbathing with terrific views of neighboring Kahoolawe and Molokini.

3. Hapuna Beach, Big Island

We featured this photo on the Beat of Hawaii Facebook fan page yesterday. This beach is loved by visitors and locals alike. It has everything from good state park facilities with camping to a resort tucked at the far end. It's big enough that it all works. Hapuna is known for swimming, boarding, snorkeling and sunbathing that are consistently top notch. Do you know about turtle cove? At the far end of the beach, near the hotel, you'll see Hawaiian green sea turtles.
