OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Just past
Baldwin Beach is Paia Bay (called Baby Beach
by many of the locals), is right at the edge
of town right before you enter Paia. There’s
usually not too many people there except
when the waves are up and the boogie boards
and body boards are out.
It is quite a long beach fronting a bay.
Walk down the beach a ways and you can stake
out an area all to yourself.
You can surf and boogie board here when the
waves are up. Good beach for
swimming when the waves are down. You can
also play basketball in the adjacent park or
make use of the grassy area.
There are bathrooms, showers and picnic
benches. The park has a basketball court and
grassy area. There are
no lifeguards at Paia Bay. |

While
Hawaii's beaches can bring much enjoyment,
it is always a good practice to use common
sense while visiting them. Please be aware
of the wave & wind conditions before going
into the water. Mornings are usually best
for swimming, snorkeling or diving. Have
respect for the strength of the waves and be
aware that high surf can come up at any
time. NEVER turn your back to the ocean.
Be careful when exploring any rocky
shorelines. Waves can crash on the rocks and
knock you over easily, and the rocks may
also be sharp when walking on them.
When snorkeling or scuba diving, please have
respect for ocean life, and remember that
the coral reef is alive too. Avoid standing
on or touching if at all possible. |
