Three days at the Beach Shack set the tone for a 2 week stay on the Big Island. Check out the trails (evacuation route) behind the Shack. Really nice running on cinder early in the morning. Beach 69 about 1.5 miles away and better than Hapuna Beach, imo. Go before 8:30 and have the place to yourself. Lastly, enjoy the turkeys hanging around the Shack. I would return here easily.
