Guidebook for Kailua-Kona
Parks & Nature
Hapuna Beach State Park
Old Puako RoadLong and soft sandy beach with great swimming!
This beach is on a private club, but if you go to the gate they will issue you a beach pass. The beach has a great kiddie pool surrounded by rock, so it is one of our favorites to bring the kids to. But there is also awesome snorkeling and whale watching (in season) here. Something for everyone!

This beach requires a bit of a hike... but well worth it as you might just find you have the place to yourself!

Captain Cook Monument can be reached by hiking or boat, but kayaking is our favorite way. Last time we went we swam with a pod of dolphins! Super awesome snorkeling too!
