This beach is the best beach in the world! The swimming, when safe, is a blast, the shells are abundant, and the peace and quiet will take anyone worlds away. Spend a day...it will quickly become your favorite too.

Great beach. Only problem is mid-day when the sun makes the sand so hot you have to wear sandals to/from the water. Mixture of calm cove-like beach with lava rock finger that you can jump from into the surf between a small outcropping.

We used to live in the islands. Kauai's our favorite and Lumahai's our favorite beach.
