OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Papalaua Beach
is located on your right just as your coming
down off the Pali(cliffs) on your way to
Lahaina from the south. It is a nice beach
with great surfing. There are a number of
peaks surfing that you can pick from. This
is a good spot for an advanced beginner or
intermediate surfer.
Activities are surfing and boogieboarding.
The snorkeling is great on the far south end
of the beach up against the Pali (cliffs),
but when there is no wave action. You can
camp here also with a permit. See below.
There are a few amenities here including
portable bathrooms, picnic benches and BBQ
areas. |

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. |
