Sharks Bay

South Lanai

Sharks Bay is a small area located to the left of Hulopo'e Beach. It is divided from the beach by a red lava rock tongue of land that protrudes out into the ocean. This length of lava is a perfect place to hike to obtain great views of the coastline, both east and west, and of Pu'u Pehe Rock.

The Cove is sandy, protected, and secluded from the main beach area - perfect area for a picnic or just sunbathing. Swimming here is not recommended due to strong currents and numerous rocks.

Shark's Bay is separated by a small rock outcropping from Shark's Cove, a much smaller crescent of sand. Shark's Bay is much easier to reach and just a beautiful.
