These are pictures from our neighborhood beach. There are some large tidepools big enough to swim and snorkel in when the tide is up. You can see them windsurfing upwind at Ho'okipa Beach from here. Not many people come to this secluded spot, so it's a good place to just relax and soak up the sun.
Kids love to play in the water here because it's usually safe from big wave action.
Mama's Fish House Restaurant overlooks the beach. It's a great place to have lunch or dinner. This panorama shows the western side of the beach, which is the safest place to launch and return with your windsurfing rig. Be sure to wear some reef shoes as there are vana, small sea urchins, in the reef.
