Poipu Beach Park, Poipu

A wonderful beach and park! Turtles are regular visitors along with the occasional Hawaiian Monk Seal. The water is calm enough for kiddos, while the other side of the breakers is good for surfing. There is also Nukumoi Point, which is a little peninsula that turns into an island you can swim/snorkel out to about 100 feet off shore. Turtles hang out here also, which is cool as you are away from people. Lifeguards are on duty seven days a week.

Great local family park attached to Poipu Beach. There is a nice playground structure for the little ones with a 180 degree panoramic view of Poipu Beach. There are picnic tables scattered around the park with great views with outdoor grills. Some are under trees (shade!). There are also individual covered pavilions (with picnic tables) to protect you from the rain/wind. They can be rented out for parties and weddings (saw a wedding ceremony happening in one of them). Park is flat and full of palm trees, grass. There are paved walkways for wheel chairs, walkers, and strollers. Both locals and tourists (on Poipu Beach) are there. Free parking lot is across the street.
