off Highway 19
NW Hawaii
This salt and pepper sand beach is located on the ocean
side of the Outrigger Waikoloa Resort. Besides being a
beautiful resort area, the historical King's
Trail runs nearby and there are over 2-acres
of petroglyphs, rock shelters, trails and ancient sites
scattered throughout the area.
|
|
|
This lovely beach is perfect for swimming,
diving and snorkeling and is fairly well protected from
strong surf due to the offshore reef.

Inland from the beach is a large ancient
Hawaiian fishpond. The pond was used for raising mullet
for the royalty and ali'i of the times. The pond is ringed
by beautiful palm trees and makes for a picturesque sunset
photo opportunity. There are also educational plaques along
the trail surrounding the pond area.

A shoreline trail leads between resort
hotels and extends from the Outrigger Waujikia all the way
to the Hilton Waikoloa. This long and beautiful trail winds
among lava, sand, coral and tidepools.

Numerous resort facilities are available
