Parks & Nature

Fantastic local beach with white sand and mellow waves perfect for body surfing and bodyboarding. The water is super blue and clear! There is very little shade, so bring an umbrella and the parking gets packed so come early.

Gorgeous white sandy beach, plenty of parking ($4 for non-locals), bathrooms, and even barbecue pits. This is a very popular beach with the locals and tourists alike, but there's enough room for everyone. There is no shade on the beach, so an umbrella is a must.

This hike is the most bang per time! It's about a 20 minute walk down and 45 minute hike back but the views are spectacular! At the bottom of the hike, you can wade on the black sand beach, build a "rock tower" and play on the giant ripe swings.

Sightseeing

Plenty of parking, a small grass area to picnic, and zero hiking to get to the falls. It's best to come in the morning to actually catch a rainbow over the falls.
